Abstract
Utero-vaginal prolapse is a common condition in the female population. In addition to well-known predisposing risk factors malnutrition, autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) and dialysis technique may favour its occurrence or aggravation, especially in patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). Depending on severity, a relative contraindication to peritoneal dialysis (PD) could be considered. We report the cases of two patients with a grade IV utero-vaginal prolapse who successfully started PD after obliterative surgery (partial colpocleisis by Le Fort).
