A Technique to Address Peritoneal Dialysis Catheter Malfunction
BACKGROUND A 66-year-old male with a history of severe ischemic myopathy and renal failure underwent a combined heart and kidney transplant. Postoperative failure of the transplanted kidney eventually led to the need for peritoneal dialysis (PD). METHODS After one month, the PD catheter was laparoscopically repositioned after it was found to have migrated from its correct position in the pelv...
متن کاملDialysis catheter malfunction
Vascular access is a crucial factor in the treatment of hemodialysis patients. Dialysis catheters are associated with higher mortality than fistulas, meaning they should be the last choice for most patients. Although they have many drawbacks, catheters play an important role in providing a reliable vascular access in some patients. Dialysis catheter dysfunction is a major cause of morbidity. Ea...
متن کاملPeritoneal dialysis catheter placement technique and complications
Background. This review describes the peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter implantation techniques for the treatment of PD. The PD catheter-related complications still cause significant morbidity and mortality, resulting in the necessity to switch to haemodialysis (HD) treatment. Methods. Several catheter insertion techniques, using an open surgical approach, laparoscopic and percutaneous techniqu...
متن کاملThe Choice of Peritoneal Dialysis Catheter Implantation Technique by Nephrologists
Peritoneal dialysis catheter (PDC) is the lifeline of peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. One of the critical issues for successful PD is a well-functioning PDC which is timely inserted. It is the implantation technique rather than the catheter design that determines the outcome of the catheter. Dedication in acquiring the appropriate technique is vital to the success of a PD program. In this pa...
متن کاملPeritoneal Dialysis Catheter Placement Techniques
The success of catheter placement is critically important for the ability to stay on peritoneal dialysis over the long-term. Nephrologists have used percutaneous placement with or without fluoroscopic guidance and placement using peritoneoscopic guidance to place these catheters. Complications can be divided into early, within 14 days, and late complications, those arising more that 14 days aft...
