We conducted a 4-year retrospective study (1996-1999) in order to assess the abdominal events in @entity1 on @entity298 ( @entity298 ), as well as the technique failure and the death incidence. We enrolled 127 @entity1 in two french dialysis centers, who presented 9 enteric @entity298 (13.2% of the total @entity298 episodes), occurring 7.6 +/- 7.9 months after @entity298 treatment. Surgery (8 @entity1 ) and definitive technique failure (7 @entity1 ) were necessary. @entity547 were the most frequent with 32.6% of the total abdominal complications. They were either umbilical (7 @entity1 ), or inguinal (5 @entity1 ) or hiatal (3 @entity1 ). Six @entity1 continued on @entity298 without disruption whereas 6 @entity1 had a transient stop and thereafter returned to @entity298 . The other abdominal complications such as @entity356 (5 @entity1 ), oesophagogastric reflux (5 @entity1 ), @entity409 (9 @entity1 ) occurred during @entity298 treatment without any relationship with the treatment modality. In the @entity6 population, abdominal complications were not more frequent but they took place more quickly than in the non @entity6 population (5.5 +/- 3.8 months versus 12.9 +/- 16.3 months with p < 0.01). A rapid diagnosis, especially in case of enteric @entity298 , is mandatory to avoid "abdominal catastrophes" mainly due to @entity130 . The incidence of @entity547 could be decreased if a good clinical approach is effective before @entity298 treatment.
