A plain radiograph of the abdomen showed the PD catheter optimally positioned in the true pelvis (Figure 1(a)). With the assistance of a surgeon, a second incision was made over the distal end of the catheter and it was separated from the subcutaneous tissue by dissection and the end of the catheter was cut off (Figure 1(b)).
