Increasing prevalence of cancer, neurological disorders, diabetes, and gastrointestinal diseases are the critical factors attributed to the South America gastric buttons market expansion.

Diabetes is a life-threatening chronic disease with no functional cure. Diabetes can lead to various complications in different body parts and increase the overall risk of premature death. Heart attack, stroke, kidney failure, leg amputation, vision loss, and nerve damage are the major complications associated with diabetes.

Maintaining proper nutrition during cancer treatment is essential. When cancer patients struggle with nutrition, gastric buttons can help provide vitamins, minerals, calories, protein, and fluids required to help the patient fight infection, heal, and stay healthy during cancer treatment.  

Neurological disorders such as Parkinson's disease, dementia, epilepsy and seizures, autism, cerebral palsy, and Alzheimer's disease affect the brain and nerves of the human body. Weight loss and malnutrition as suboptimal oral intake are common in patients with neurological disorders and are associated with increased disability, morbidity, and mortality.

Almost 80% of people with epilepsy live in low- and middle-income countries. The same source estimates that up to 70% of people with epilepsy could live seizure-free with proper diagnosis and treatment. The nutritional management of patients with neurological disease is crucial, and enteral feeding is a commonly used method to provide nutritional support.

A gastrointestinal disease affects the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, the passage that runs from the mouth to the anus. Common GI disorders include irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), acid reflux, indigestion, colon cancer, and hemorrhoids. According to the data published by International Foundation for Gastrointestinal Disorders, among all irritable bowel syndrome patients, ~40% of people have mild IBS, ~35% have moderate IBS, and ~25% have severe IBS. Certain factors such as food allergies, developing stages of gastroenteritis, sporadic colon movements, the abnormal composition of serotonin in the colon, and mild celiac disease are among the risk factors that cause irritable bowel syndrome. Pancreatic diseases, liver diseases, and inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are often associated with nutritional difficulties and require adequate nutrition to support medical treatment.

The gastrostomy button has recently been used as the enteral route of choice by many doctors and has the cosmetic advantage of being hidden under clothing. Once placed, it can be used for several days.
