BACKGROUND Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is a rare complication of peritoneal dialysis (PD) that is associated with significant morbidity and mortality in adults. There are scarce data for children. We performed a 10-year survey to determine the prevalence, risk factors and outcome for EPS in children. METHODS Chronic PD patients in 14 dialysis units participating in the European P...
Models of encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) are often based on local administration of chemical irritants. Our aim was to develop a clinically relevant "two-hit" model with incorporation of renal failure and exposure to conventional dialysis solutions. We randomly allocated 36 male Wistar rats that had undergone catheter implantation and a 70% nephrectomy to 3 peritoneal infusion groups....
BACKGROUND Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is the most severe complication associated with long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD). Previous studies noticed a sharp decline in new patients with severe EPS. We investigated the number of severe EPS patients in our large referral center over almost 20 years. METHODS All late-stage EPS patients who underwent major surgery due to extensive sym...
We report a case of peritoneal mesothelioma discovered in a patient during peritoneal dialysis. The patient was a 55-year-old woman who had no history of asbestos exposure. Owing to end-stage kidney failure, she had been undergoing peritoneal dialysis for over 8 years, and she had been diagnosed with encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis. She was admitted to the hospital for intestinal obstruction...
In the present study, we examined the risk factors and causes for removal of the peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter in patients on continuous ambulatory PD (CAPD). Data were collected from the records of patients who received CAPD therapy from 1995 to 2007 in the Department of Nephrology, Saitama Medical University. During that time, 473 patients were introduced onto CAPD therapy and the PD cath...
We previously reported that peritoneal dialysis (PD)-associated peritonitis is a major cause of PD catheter removal. Another major cause is disease of the gastrointestinal tract, including neoplasm and perforation. In the present study, we reviewed the records of patients who underwent catheter removal at our hospital for reasons other than peritoneal infection--and for gastrointestinal disease...
Mesothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (MMT) is an auto-regulated physiological process of tissue repair that in uncontrolled conditions such as peritoneal dialysis (PD) can lead to peritoneal fibrosis. The maximum expression of peritoneal fibrosis induced by PD fluids and other peritoneal processes is the encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) for which no specific treatment exists. Tamoxifen...
