The laparoscopic procedure allows exact localization of the peritoneal catheter and its proper functioning.
The Surgical time can be shorter even to 30 min decreasing the anesthesia needed and its possible side effects.
The laparoscopic procedure may decrease the incidence of peritoneal catheter misplacement even to 0%.
The position of the peritoneal catheter must not be controlled using X-ray which help to avoid extra radiation exposure.
A diagnostic or a therapeutic laparoscopy can be done during the same surgical session.
