A 12 months mono-center, descriptive study, to evaluate pain and predictive factors Following placement of percutaneous Radiologic gastrostomy (PRG). The primary objective is to evaluate the abdominal pain associated with percutaneous radiologic gastrostomy (PRG) placement.
PRG is a pathway first of all enteral nutrition that has several advantages: local anesthesia, possible in case of esophageal stenosis, Rates of successful tube placement higher for radiologic gastrostomy than for percutaneous endoscopic Gastrostomy (PEG). Abdominal pain following percutaneous radiologic gastrostomy (PRG) placement is a recognized complication. However, the prevalence and degree of severity of pain are poorly characterized. This pain often requires antalgic treatment. The primary objective is to evaluate the abdominal pain from Baseline until 7 days after radiologic gastrostomy (PRG) placement. The secondary objective is to evaluate predictive factors

numerical scale 0 to 10, with 0 being "no pain" and 10 being "the worst pain imaginable."
Time frame: 7 days
predictive factors
determine predictive factors of pain suspected in advance: * Fasting anterior stomach wall depth estimated during the ultrasound survey(mm) * Gastric topography determined under X-ray (subcostal / partially retrohepatic) * Topography of the anchors: large tuberosity / antrum * Distance of anchors from each other (mm) * Depth of the anchors (mm) * Skin depression of anchors: (with depression, without depression) * Intraparietal length of the gastrostomy tube (mm)
Time frame: DAY 1
