W F Pinggera, and H K Stummvoll, and A Wolf, and C F Gutch, and D A Ogden, and J F Mahony, and J H Holmes

In this collaborative study 9 cases of intractable ascites in chronic hemodialysis patients are evaluated. Six patients died within 14, two more within 18 months after onset of ascites. Possible causes of the pathogenesis (repeated fluid overload, hydrostatic and oncotic pressure flux forces, alteration of membrane permeability) are discussed. Renal homograft transplantation seems to be the only successful treatment.
