초록 Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is rare but near-fatal complication of peritoneal dialysis (PD). Although mortality in EPS patients is high, neither preventive management nor effective therapeutic guideline has been established yet. We reviewed outcomes of EPS cases which received surgical management. This retrospective study included patients who underwent laparotomy and enterolysis for intractable EPS at Seoul National University Hospital between 2001 and 2018. The EPS was diagnosed by clinical symptoms and radiologic findings on abdominal CT scans. CT scan was scored according to the previously described EPS scoring system including peritoneal thickening, bowel thickening, peritoneal calcification, bowel tethering, loculation, and bowel dilatation.
