Preservation of Peritoneal Dialysis in Liver Surgery with Robotic Technique: A Case Report.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

During the last year, the features of peritoneal dialysis patients have changed, and the cases in which there is a need to perform abdominal surgery are growing. Reports of abdominal surgery in patients who are able to continue peritoneal dialysis are increasing. The minimally invasive techniques represent the preferred and safest approach. Such techniques are associated with reduced hospitalization time, less invasiveness, peritoneal integrity preservation, and reduced intra-abdominal inflammation due to regenerative processes.

Case presentation

In this case report, we present a case of major abdominal surgery, in the form of hepatic metastasectomy, performed with the robotic-assisted technique, which allowed catheter and intracorporeal dialysis preservation. T
