Polycystic kidney disease is a relative contraindication for active treatment with peritoneal dialysis (PD). We have treated 10 end stage kidney disease patients with PD, 4 with intermittent PD and 6 with CAPD. PD was successful in most of these patients. The following complications recurred: a marked increase in arterial blood pressure occurred in one patient, epileptiform fits appeared three times in a patient due to hypocalcemia; renal cancer was documented in a patient after two months on PD. Our results support the view that in selected cases peritoneal dialysis could be successfully used in end-stage polycystic kidney disease.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007676 Kidney Failure, Chronic The end-stage of CHRONIC RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. It is characterized by the severe irreversible kidney damage (as measured by the level of PROTEINURIA) and the reduction in GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE to less than 15 ml per min (Kidney Foundation: Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative, 2002). These patients generally require HEMODIALYSIS or KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION.
