The Permanent Tenckhoff Catheters

  • Chapter
Vascular and Peritoneal Access for Dialysis

Part of the book series: Topics in Renal Medicine ((TIRM,volume 8))

Abstract

Between September 1973 and March 1988, our team implanted 768 catheters in 621 patients, 715 of which were for chronic treatment of 567 end-stage renal disease patients. Catheters used were 675 double-Dacron felt cuff Tenckhoff (Cobe), 74 Column Disc (Bernas), and 19 Gore-Tex® (Gore) catheters.
