Abstract EN
Many methods are used for the placement of Tenckhoff catheters.
Eighteen consecutive Tenckhoff catheters were placed under local anesthesia through a mini laparotomy with a reduced operating team.
There were only three total catheter failures.
Complications were infrequent and operating time was less than one hour on average.
This simple procedure should be a part of the training program of all junior surgeons and nephrologists.
