Controversy still exists as to whether @entity298 ( @entity298 ) treatment can be safely continued after herniotomy. Many nephrologists withhold @entity298 treatment for several weeks after herniotomy for fear of dialysate leakage and @entity547 recurrence. Here, we report on 9 @entity1 (2 @entity1 , 7 @entity1 ) in whom herniotomy was performed for umbilical (n = 3), inguinal (n = 5), or cicatricial @entity547 (n = 2), or for open processus vaginalis (n = 2). Surgery was performed according to the Lichtenstein method with insertion of a @entity7502 mesh and ligation of the @entity547 sac. In all @entity1 , @entity298 treatment was paused for the day of surgery and for 1-3 days postoperatively, depending on residual renal function. Over the next several days, low-volume (1.0-1.5 L), high-frequency (6 per day) exchanges were started. The @entity1 's original @entity298 regimen was gradually reinstated over the next 2-4 weeks. All @entity1 recovered rapidly, with no @entity5507 or dialysis-related complications. Particularly, no leakage and no @entity547 recurrence could be observed 3 months thereafter. None of the @entity1 had to be hemodialyzed intercurrently. In conclusion, continuing a modified regimen of CAPD treatment after herniotomy seems to be safe, with excellent @entity1 comfort.

Sustaining continuous ambulatory XXXX after herniotomy.
