Perioperative Renal Management
The patients underwent preoperative hemodialysis based on their original schedule. Intraoperative hemodialysis was only performed for extreme electrolyte abnormality. Patients routinely underwent postoperative hemodialysis on the day of operation and the following day. On postoperative day 2, the patients resumed hemodialysis on their original schedule and their body weights were controlled in an effort to revert to their preoperative dry weight by the end of the first postoperative week. Patients with extreme postoperative weight gain were prescribed extra hemodialysis.
