Introduction: Literature reveals several peritoneal dialysis laparoscopic catheter\ninsertion techniques developed to improve long-term results for treatment\nchronic kidney failure with the technic of peritoneal dialysis. The purpose\nof the study is evaluation of developed and recommended minimally invasive\nlaparoscopic technic for chronic peritoneal dialysis catheter placement\nusing specially constructed trocar. Materials and Methods: Retrospective\nstudy included 804 patients in 10 departments of surgery. Surgical and non\nsurgical complications related to PD catheter placement were analysed:\nbleeding, dialysate leak, early SSI, peritonitis, catheter tip migration, catheter\nobstruction, omental wrapping and visceral perforations. Available software\n(Microsoft�® Excel for Windows 10, MedCalc, Mariakerke, Belgium) was used\nfor statistical analysis (presented as percentages, mean �± SD or median). Con-clusions: The presented technique with specially constructed trocar is a simple\nand effective procedure with fewer complications comparing to literature.\nThe advantages of this method include long rectus sheath tunnel with the\ndeep cuff placed pre-peritoneally, the small size of the entrance into the peritoneum\nand accurate position and control of catheter tip in the pelvis.
