Upon peritoneal dialysis (PD) discontinuation in frail patients, we have re-embedded the
catheter and left it subcutaneously buried. However, we have not evaluated the long-term …

We previously reported a re-embedding catheter technique for peritoneal dialysis (PD)
patients with high risk of catheter removal at the discontinuation of PD. We recently operated …

Background. Our centre uses a modification of the Moncrief technique of embedding
peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheters. We undertook this study to test the hypothesis that …

Buried peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheters are typically inserted several weeks or months
before the anticipated need for dialysis. Occasionally, renal function unexpectedly stabilizes …

Many studies have examined the survival of the first peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter.
However, data are scarce about the factors that influence the function and survival time of a …

Materials and Methods We used the Swan Neck Sendai Catheters, JB-5 (A)(Hayashidera
Co. Ltd., Ishikawa, Japan) for all patients. The intraperitoneal PDC configurations were …

Secondary embedding of a peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter has been performed for patients
whose kidney function has improved enough to stop dialysis but recovery is not expected to …
