| Popis: |
Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) has been an effective treatment for end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Tuberculous peritonitis (TBP) in patients on CAPD is a perilous condition. A 28-years-old female presented to the emergency unit with a chief complaint of intermittent abdominal pain and fever. The patient had a history of renal failure and CAPD was inserted. CAPD fluid analysis revealed leukocytes of +3/visual field and positive for acid-fast bacilli. The patient was given antituberculous agents, CAPD removal, and AV shunt installment for the subsequent HD access. A high index of suspicion must always be maintained for CAPD-associated tuberculous peritonitis. |
