However, the placement of a NGT, either blindly or by endoscopy, is technically challenging in these patients due to the obstructive mass and the altered regional anatomy. The aim of this retrospective study was to estimate the clinical feasibility and safety of fluoroscopic-guided NGT placement in patients with advanced HNC.animationEnteral nutrition/instrumentation*; Fluoroscopy/methods*; Gastrointestinal/methods*; Humans; Intubation[SDGs]SDG3fentanyl; meglumine ioxitalamate plus sodium ioxitalamate; adult; advanced cancer; aged; Article; aspiration pneumonia; balloon dilatation; cancer localization; cancer staging; cancer surgery; controlled study; feasibility study; female; fluoroscopy; gastrostomy; head and neck cancer; human; hypopharynx; intensive care unit; jejunostomy; larynx; major clinical study; male; mouth cavity; nose cavity; oropharynx; primary tumor; retrospective study; submandibular gland; diagnostic imaging; digestive tract intubation; enteric feeding; head and neck tumor; Enteral Nutrition; Fluoroscopy; Gastrostomy; Head and Neck Neoplasms; Humans; Intubation, Gastrointestinal; Retrospective StudiesFluoroscopic-guided nasogastric tube placement in patients with advanced head and neck cancersjournal article10.1016/j.jfma.2019.11.003317597502-s2.0-85088650257https://api.elsevier.com/content/abstract/scopus_id/85088650257
