The paper summarizes the clinical and follow-up data of percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) in three infants with chronic kidney disease to explore the safety and reliability of using PEG to improve the growth and development, and nutritional status. During follow-up, the weight and height of case 1 and 3 were obviously improved. Case 2 was followed up for 3 months, due to dying of cardiac arrest, and the infant's height and weight were not significantly improved. Serum albumin and prealbumin improved in 3 cases after PEG. No PEG-related infection occurred in 3 infants.
