Abstract

It is an important problem for continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients whether CAPD can be continued after abdominal surgery. We experienced a CAPD patient with early gastric carcinoma treated by distal gastrectomy, preserving the greater omentum, for the continuation of CAPD after the operation. Preoperative evaluation of the peritoneal function, early detection of intra-abdominal malignant lesions, and modifications of postoperative management are discussed.
