Abstract | Peritoneal dialysis is the preferred dialysis mode for children with end stage renal disease (1). It avoids problems with vascular access and enables near normal life style. Haemodialysis is the only mode of treatment for a child waiting for renal transplantation when peritoneal dialysis is not possible. Haemofiltration, as a mode of renal replacement therapy, was introduced in 1967 by Lee Henderson (2). | |
