An unusual case of peritonitis after vaginal leak in a patient on peritoneal dialysis

摘要

Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) is used as an alternative to hemodialysis and has very few complications which include abdominal hernia, peritonitis, processus vaginalis, pleural leakage, and those related to the catheter exit site.1 It may occasionally be complicated by leakage of dialysate fluid into the abnormal sites.2, 3 We report a case of a woman who experienced vaginal leakage during CAPD and after peritonitis.
