Title: 
Perforation of the ascending colon during implantation of an indwelling
peritoneal catheter: a case report
Version:

Reviewer's report:
Interesting case, well written, although I don't find it to be a particular and rare
case report. Patients with intraperitoneal adhesions are at higher risk of bowel
perforation during any kind of procedure, also in case of careful imaging-based
guidance. So this is a predictable complication in this case.
