Sažetak
Peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter surgery can be performed using regional anesthesia. We present our PD catheter placement and extraction experience using ultrasound-guided transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block. In the present study, we analyzed 74 patients from our center with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) who underwent PD catheter placement (60 patients) and removal (14 patients) using a TAP block between June 2011 and December 2015. The TAP block was successful for 55/60 (91.7%) patients (insertion) and 13/14 (92.9%) patients (extraction. Other patients had pain at the incision site and required general anesthesia. There were no anesthesia-, surgery- or PD catheter related complications. The TAP block is a safe and effective technique not only for high-risk ESRD patients but for all patients undergoing PD catheter placement or extraction.
