Abstract EN

CAPD catheter malfunction is a common problem.

Obstruction due to wrapping by appendices epiploicae of sigmoid colon has been rarely reported in literature.

We report a case of CAPD catheter malfunction caused by catheter tip migration and obstruction by appendices epiploicae that was successfully managed by laparoscopic hanging loop technique.

This case report highlights the ease with which epiplopexy can be performed and catheter tip migration can be prevented by this innovative laparoscopic procedure.
