title: [Encapsulating sclerosing peritonitis: report of 2 cases].
abstract: SEP is an increasingly seen complication of CAPD; we have the occasion to see again this condition because two patients came under our observation. We have remarked the unknown etiology and pathogenesis, the difficult diagnosis and therapy, and the often poor prognosis.
