Abstract
The proper placement of the chronic peritoneal dialysis catheter is pivital to the early, as well as continued success of dialysis therapy with Continued Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis. We describe our current technique for the implantation of the Toronto-Western catheter. The success of any particular technique is dependent upon the incidence of complications. The latter is described elsewhere in this symposium.
