Novel method for laparoscopic rectus sheath tunneling with Lin's tube in peritoneal dialysis catheter implantation

We described a novel method for laparoscopic catheter rectus sheath tunneling using an aspiration tube and a silk tie (Lin's tube). This material is easily available and yields a small fascial defect with an equivalent cannula size to minimize tissue disruption. The technique is feasible, reproducible and it may reduce the risks of postoperative leakage and hemorrhage.PMID:37528754 | DOI:10.1111/sdi.13165
