FERNANDEZ-PEREZ, Mónica et al. Analysis of peritoneal catheter removal after renal transplantation in adult population. Enferm Nefrol [online]. 2021, vol.24, n.4, pp.417-422.  Epub 07-Fev-2022. ISSN 2255-3517.  https://dx.doi.org/10.37551/s2254-28842021035.

The aim of the study was to compare the need to use the peritoneal catheter versus possible complications after renal transplantation, as well as to assess the opportunity of its systematic removal in the same surgical act.

Methodology:

A descriptive and retrospective study was conducted between January 2014 and November 2019. We included all patients over 18 years of age on peritoneal dialysis who received a kidney transplant.

Results:

124 patients on peritoneal dialysis with a mean age of 55.9±12.6 years at the time of transplantation were included, of whom 77 were male (62.1%). The catheter was removed at the time of transplantation in 22 patients (17.7%), of whom 2 (1.6% of 124 patients) required haemodialysis; it was removed at a second time in 102 patients (82.3%). Of these, 13 (10.5% of 124 patients) required some form of dialysis, of which 10 (8%) were peritoneal dialysis. Catheter or technique-related complications occurred in 14 patients (13.7%).

Conclusions:

Taking into account that approximately 14% of patients had complications related to the peritoneal catheter and that 92% of transplanted patients did not need peritoneal dialysis, it was considered beneficial for both the patient and the institution to remove the catheter at the same surgical procedure.
