“…The ANZDATA Registry recently reported a 78% risk of peritonitis in Australian indigenous PD patients independent of demographic and comorbidity factors-perhaps a result of suboptimal personal and community cleanliness coupled with overcrowding and nonfunctional basic housing infrastructure (1). Our 12-month catheter survival of 79.2% was similar to that reported in the literature (7,12). More than 90% of all PD catheters in our unit are inserted by a nephrologist.…”

“…The rates of early complication such as leaks (3.3%), exit-site infection (2.2%), and peritonitis (3.3%) encountered in the present study compare favorably with the results of the peritoneoscopic technique in the randomized controlled trial of Gadallah et al (12). However, primary catheter malfunction occurred in 13 of the catheters (14.1%) implanted in our cohort, which is almost double the 7.9% reported by Gadallah et al (12). Despite successful treatment of constipation and normal catheter placement (determined by computed tomography imaging of abdomen), we were unable to determine the cause of poor drainage.…”

“…We report an overall catheter survival rate comparable with previous reports of laparoscopic or open placement [8,[11][12][13], with an average of 80% survival at 2 years. Gadallah et al [12] showed that a peritoneoscopically placed catheter (using Y-TEC) had fewer complications and higher survival rates compared with those placed by an open technique. A recent meta-analysis showed that peritoneoscopically placed catheters had a better 1-year survival and also less catheter migration than those placed via an open approach [10].…”

“…Although studies in adults, including RCTs, have shown an improved catheter survival rate and a lower incidence of infections and leaks subsequent to the introduction of laparoscopic placement (35,36), many studies in children have failed to show such a relationship (10,37,38). As for omentectomy, the procedure is performed in 60%-80% of PD catheter placements in children (39), and many studies have shown a significant reduction of catheter occlusion when routine omentectomy was performed (11,40).…”
