From the Department of Nephrology, Specialties Hospital, "La Raza" Medical Center, I.M.S.S. and * Nephrology Department, specialties Hospital, National Medical Center, I.M.S.S., Mexico City.

The purpose of this work is to assess EPD in ARF patients who have suffered rhabdomyolysis. In preparation for Tenckhoff catheter insertion dialysis exchanges through a stylet catheter were used every 30 minutes; after implantation of the Tenckhoff catheter we started 2L of solution with six four-hour exchanges. Dialysis was discontinued after 16 days on average when patients had a urinary volume of over one litre in 24 hours.

KEY WORDS: Acute renal failure; Oliguria; Peritoneal dialysis; Rhabdomyolysis.
