20). These findings correlate well with the known phenomenon of episodic rise and fall of fibrin content of dialysate effluent. Clinical observations confirm pathological findings that the development of a thick fibrin exudate can occur rapidly and fibroneogenesis spreads throughout the recently formed fibrin mantle. In many instances this new tissue is pseudoneoplastic, and in this respect is most probably analogous to the invasive pannus of rheumatoid arthritis which penetrates soft tissue, cartilage and bone [26].
Increased density of cells means increased length of the cellular junctions. The equations relating cell number to junctional length and mesothelial permeability might NORMAL MESOTHELIUM 31 provide important new insights regarding the inter-patient variability of peritoneal permeability. Unfortunately randomly collected and variably processed biopsies received by the International Peritoneal Biopsy Registry do not readily lend themselves to accurate morphometry. Scanning electron microscopy also shows a diminution in density of microvillous projections with continued exposure to dialysate (Fig.
Catheter-related problems Catheter migration from the pelvis or omental blockage, leakage, tunnel and exit site infections frequently give rise to surgical removal of the catheter and an opportunity for peritoneal biopsy. In most instances the patient and his peritoneum have been quietly attempting to proceed with normal dialysis and therefore most samples in this category are similar to those found in l(a). Specimens obtained in such circumstances also serve to document extension of inflammation from the catheter tract into the peritoneum.
