Abstract Background Peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter fixation techniques are frequently employed to minimize migration and optimize dialysate flow. While mechanical complications of PD catheters are well recognized, adverse events directly attributable to anchoring sutures are rarely described. We report two patients with end‐stage renal failure (ESRF)
