  • Title: Synchronous Laparoscopic Insertion of Peritoneal Dialysis Catheter and Cholecystectomy in Patients with End-Stage Renal Disease and Gallstones - Our Experience.
    Author: Janež J.
    Journal: Perit Dial Int; 2019; 39(5):489-491. PubMed ID: 31501294.
    Abstract:
    In patients with end-stage renal disease who are candidates for peritoneal dialysis (PD) and have gallstones or gallbladder polyps, it is advised to perform synchronous insertion of PD catheter and cholecystectomy. With gallbladder removal at the time of peritoneal catheter insertion we can avoid infective complications, such as acute cholecystitis and possible PD failure. This article presents our experience with synchronous laparoscopic cholecystectomy and insertion of a PD catheter.
