Summary

The aim of the study is to emphasize the technique , success rate , efficacy of translumbar and transhepatic approaches and shed light on the complications of both methods and through comparison we can give recommendations to either of these methods.

Detailed description

For selected ESRD patients who have exhausted all conventional access routes , translumbar and transhepatic permcath provide additional sites for access. This study will compare the two methods in terms of technical success (position of catheter tip), patency (primary defined as the number of catheter days from initial placement until removal \& secondary defined as the number of catheter days after device replacement using the same access site) , mean cumulative duration of catheter in situ defined as the cumulative catheter days divided by the number of patients, function (adequacy of dialysis based on Urea Reduction Ratio URR \& Simplified Daugirdas Formula Kt/V) and complications (infectious; exit site infection \& sepsis and non-infectious; thrombosis, catheter migration, hematoma, intraperitoneal hemorrhage.

Conditions
