    Journal: Proc Eur Dial Transplant Assoc; 1981; 18():222-7. PubMed ID: 7036149.
    Abstract:
    Over a two year period 15 patients on CAPD and 65 patients predominantly treated by haemodialysis received first grafts. There was no difference in graft survival in these two groups. In the continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients there were no post operative episodes of peritonitis, apart from one patient who had peritonitis at the time of transplantation. No technical difficulties were encountered at the time of grafting. CAPD is not a contraindication to transplantation.
