EXIT SITE RELOCATION: A NOVEL TECHNIQUE FOR EXIT SITE INFECTION

Comment# 1

Exit-site (ESI) infections of the peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter are a significant cause of catheter loss or even modality switch as well as patient morbidity. Although various approaches, such as unroofing the tunnel tract with shaving of the superficial catheter cuff or partial replantation of a Tenckhoff catheter, have been proposed for its treatment, no golden standard technique has been established as yet.Since 2010, our renal unit has successfully treated chronic exit site infections by removing the external catheter cuff and creating a new exit site as a local anaesthetic (LA) procedure.
