Postoperative management and complications after abdominal surgery in children receiving peritoneal dialysis.

Our findings demonstrated that PD could be resumed within 48 h of inguinal hernia repair with no PD fluid leakage or hernia recurrence in pediatric patients. In addition, resuming PD 3 days after a laparoscopic procedure with less than half of the usual dialysate volume might reduce the risk of PD fluid leakage.
