Peritoneal Dialysis Catheter, 44.5 cm Length, 2 Cuffs, Left, Oreopoulos-Zellerman Design, Swan Neck Style, Sterile, Single-Use, Designed to Prevent Omental Wrapping and to Keep the Catheter Placed Low in the Pelvis
Argyle swan neck Oreopoulos-Zellerman Missouri Tenckhoff peritoneal catheters are designed to prevent omental wrapping and to keep the catheter placed low in the pelvis. With the addition of two silicone discs in the internal catheter segment, the Argyle Oreopoulos-Zellerman Missouri Tenckhoff peritoneal catheters prevent omental wrapping and keeps the catheter placed low in the pelvis. The Missouri configuration adds a silicone bead and a felt disc (flange). The felt disc is placed just outside the peritoneum and is sutured to the rectus muscle. The bead rests just inside the peritoneum to prevent dialysate leakage.
