Catheterization is the medical term meaning insertion of a tube into a duct or cavity.
Apical generally refers to the the tip of a pyramidal or rounded structure, like the lung or the heart. This means that apical pneumothorax is pneumothorax that is being caused at the tip of the lung. Incase you don't know pneumothorax is a colapsed lung. This is generally from a puncture in the lung from multiple possible causes.
Simple spontaneous pneumothorax is the sudden collapse of a lung without any apparent cause, such as trauma or underlying lung disease. It can lead to symptoms like chest pain, shortness of breath, and a rapid heart rate. Treatment may include observation, supplemental oxygen, or in more severe cases, chest tube insertion or surgery to reinflate the lung.

Adventitious air refers to air that enters a part of the body where it is not supposed to be, such as the pleural cavity around the lungs. This can lead to issues like pneumothorax, where the lung can collapse due to the presence of this air. Treatment may involve manual removal of the air or the insertion of a chest tube to allow it to escape.
Disadvantages of a gastrostomy tube include risk of infection at the insertion site, leakage around the tube, skin irritation, and potential complications during the insertion procedure such as perforation of the stomach wall or injury to surrounding organs.
