“…Patients with a complicated umbilical hernia and irreducible inguinal hernia underwent surgical repair (28.57%); those with a reducible umbilical hernia (71.42%), were managed conservatively. Apart from one small study [20], this is in contrast with previous studies that have reported 60% to 90% of surgical repair rates in patients with a hernia on PD. [4,5,8,9] There is general agreement in these studies that abdominal wall hernias should be repaired due to increased risks of bowel complications (bowel incarceration and/or strangulation), enteric peritonitis in incarcerated hernias, PD failure, and dialysate leak [5,15,21].…”

“…In our study, out of those who were managed conservatively, 53.3% of patients were managed by a change in prescription to APD/low‐volume APD, and the rest were managed by a change to low‐volume CAPD. Similarly, in a small study by Sastre et al of 44 prevalent patients on PD, 6 out of 8 patients with hernia were managed by a change of prescription to APD, and 1 patient remained on CAPD with a reduction of dwell volume; with these prescription changes, 75% patients remained asymptomatic and without complications; and only 12.5% was repaired surgically [20].…”

“…We found patients in the hernia repair group indeed had a higher percentage of male, a finding that is consistent with that reported by other investigators [ 9 ]. Our patients in the non-RLEOH group did have higher incidences of history of abdominal surgery and intraabdominal adhesion; the former is a risk factor of hernia formation in patients on PD [ 22 , 23 ], whereas the role of the latter is undefined. Whatever their potential impacts, these two factors did not increase the risk of metachronous hernia repair in our patient population as revealed by our regression analyses.…”
