Abstract EN
Peritoneal catheters are mainly used for peritoneal dialysis in patients with end-stage renal disease.
Other uses of this catheter include intraperitoneal chemotherapy and gene therapy for ovarian cancer and draining of uncontrolled refractory ascites in patients with liver cirrhosis.
Traditionally, surgeons place most of these peritoneal catheters either by laparoscopy or open laparotomy.
We detail our percutaneous approach to placing peritoneal catheters using fluoroscopic guidance.
We emphasize the use of additional ultrasound guidance, including gray scale and color Doppler ultrasound, to determine the safest puncture site and to guide the initial needle puncture in order to avoid bowel perforation and injury to epigastric artery.
We present our experience in placing peritoneal catheters using this technique in 95 patients with various indications.
Fluoroscopic guided percutaneous placement of peritoneal catheters is a safe, minimally invasive, and effective alternative to open surgical or laparoscopic placement.
