Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is a serious and often fatal complication of long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD) with severe malnutrition and poor prognosis. It causes progressive obstruction and encapsulation of the bowel loops. As EPS becomes more prevalent with longer duration of PD, large multicenter prospective studies are needed to establish its incidence and identify risk factors, therapeutic approach, and prognosis.
包裹性腹膜硬化（EPS）是长期腹膜透析（PD）的一种严重且通常致命的并发症，伴有严重营养不良且预后不良。它会导致肠袢进行性梗阻和包裹。随着腹膜透析时间延长，EPS变得越来越普遍，因此需要开展大型多中心前瞻性研究来确定其发病率，并识别危险因素、治疗方法及预后情况。
