N2 - A survey is given on various items of the physiology and pathophysiology of peritoneal transport. These include the surface area of the peritoneum, pathways and barriers, mechanisms of solute transport, size-selectivity, electric charge, peritoneal blood flow, the regulation of surface area and permeability, models and parameters of solute transport, physiology of high/fast transporters, divided in fast transport status and prognosis, types of fast transport status, and treatment of patients with a fast transport status. The subsequent subjects include the transport of electrolytes, the transport of macromolecules, and transport from the peritoneal cavity of both low molecular weight solutes and macromolecules. The following section on “Fluid Transport” is divided in transcapillary ultrafiltration and lymphatic absorption. Finally, peritoneal pathophysiology during infectious peritonitis is discussed.
