Diabetes mellitus accounts for almost half of alldialysis patients in most centres. The associatedcomorbidity of these patients makes it a struggle to providecomprehensive dialysis treatment. In parts of Asia with arapidly aging population this further hampers efforts toprovide equitable treatment for all. Peritoneal dialysisprovides a reasonable alternative in the management of endstage renal failure especially in patients with coexistentcardiovascular disease and challenging vascular access.
