Case Report of a Patient with Bilateral Renal Cell Carcinoma Successfully Maintained on Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis after Bilateral Nephrectomy
We report on a patient who developed bilateral renal cell carcinoma during continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis for chronic renal failure. He was successfully maintained on this type of dialysis after bilateral abdominal nephrectomy.
