    Abstract: A gastrojejunostomy tube may comprise a jejunal tube, gastric tube, and a balloon tube. The jejunal tube may comprise a port at a proximal end and an opening at a distal end. The gastric tube may comprise a port at a proximal end and an opening at a distal end. The gastric tube may be operably, fixedly coupled with the jejunal tube to form a tubular portion of the gastrojejunostomy tube. The balloon tube may comprise a port at a proximal end and a balloon at a distal end, and may be sized to dispose the balloon in the stomach of the target patient.

  • Patent number: 10952931
    Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for a gastrojejunostomy tube (G-J tube) with a replaceable balloon portion.

The example G-J tube can comprise a jejunal tube, a gastric tube, and a balloon tube, respectively sized to dispose the distal opening in an appropriate location in the target patient. The proximal portion can comprise at least the balloon tube, the port of the gastric tube, and the port of the jejunal tube.
