          Abstract

          Buried peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheters are typically inserted several weeks or months before the anticipated need for dialysis. Occasionally, renal function unexpectedly stabilizes after the surgery, and a patient may go years before the catheter is needed. We report a case of successful initiation of PD with a twenty-year-old buried catheter. We outline the steps needed to optimize the catheter function and review the benefits of the buried PD catheter.

          A prospective randomized study of the effect of a subcutaneously "buried" peritoneal dialysis catheter technique versus standard technique on the incidence of peritonitis and exit-site infection.

          Anders Danielsson, Linus Blohmé, Anders Tranaeus … (2002)
          A new method for implantation of peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheters was described in 1991. The distal part of the catheter is buried subcutaneously and exteriorized at the start of PD. This study was designed to evaluate the effect of such a subcutaneous rest period on the incidence of peritonitis and exit-site infections (ESI).

              Use of the embedded peritoneal dialysis catheter: experience and results from a North American Center.

              S. Knoll, D. Biyani, S Lavoie … (2006)
              Since 2000, the Ottawa Hospital Home Dialysis Program has used a variation on the embedded peritoneal dialysis catheter technique described by Moncrief et al. In this paper, we describe our approach to placement of peritoneal access and report our experience with 304 embedded catheters placed between January 2000 and December 2003. We review the advantages and disadvantages of this technique and describe factors that have been important to the success of our program.
