BACKGROUND: Although laparoscopy may provide more detailed morphological and histological information about peritoneal damage, its significance in patients with long vintage of peritoneal dialysis (PD) is not elucidated. METHODS: Findings in 12 patients with PD vintage of 7.3 (5.0-8.4) years who had undergone laparoscopy between 2007 and 2011 were reviewed. Macroscopic (peritoneal change, hypervascular change, adhesion, encapsulation) and histopathological peritoneal findings (interstitial fibrosis, microvascular change, fibrin deposition, inflammatory cell infiltration) were scored and summed as Macro-total score (Macro-TS) and Micro-total score (Micro-TS), respectively. Factors associated with these scores and the relationship between these scores were investigated. RESULTS: Neither Macro-TS nor Micro-TS were related to PD vintage (p = 0.069 and p = 0.769, respectively); moreover, Macro-TS varied from patient to patient regardless of similar PD vintage. However, Macro-TS showed a significant association with duration of acidic dialysate (p = 0.003). CONCLUSION: Macroscopic and microscopic findings via laparoscopy may help the assessment of peritoneal damage in patients with long PD vintage.
