Abstract EN
Peritoneal dialysis is a new renal replacement therapy recently introduced in Morocco since 2006.
Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis has proven to be as effective as hemodialysis.
However, it is associated with several complications.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcome of complications in patients treated with peritoneal dialysis at our center.
The nature of non-infectious complications was noted during follow-up in these patients.
Fiftyseven complications were noted among 34 patients between June 2006 and June 2014.
Catheter migration was the most common complication (36.8%), followed by obstruction (14 %), dialysate leaks (14 %), hemorrhagic complications (10.5%) and, finally, hernia (12.2 %), catheter perforation (5.2 %) and externalization (3.5 %).
