Abstract

【Abstract】 Objective To investigate the relationship between dyslipidemia and peritoneal dialysis catheter being enwrapped by omentum in peritoneal dialysis patients. Methods Fifteen patients with enwrapped catheters after placement of the catheter for peritoneal dialysis were enrolled in this study, and 30 patients without this complication were used as the controls. Blood lipid levels were compared between the patients and controls. The incidence of enwrapped catheters was also compared between the patients with dyslipidemia and those with normal lipid levels. Results Patients complicated with enwrapped catheters were found to have higher serum levels of triglycerides, cholesterol and low-density lipoproteins as well as lower serum level of apolipoprotein A1 than those without this complication. Conclusion Dyslipidemia is related to the enwrapping of peritoneal dialysis catheter by omentum, and is probably one of the risk factors for this complication.

Key words
