Resumption of peritoneal dialysis after transcutaneous treatment of a peritoneal leakage using fibrin glue.

Torulopsis famata and Debaryomyces hansenii, the yeast is found in many dairy products like cheese. It is an opportunistic pathogen that is commensal in the oral cavity. The fungus has been implicated in sporadic case reports as causing onychomycosis, systemic blastomycosis, extrinsic allergic alveolitis, systemic fungaemia and endopthalmitis.

Sclerosing Peritonitis: A Rare but Fatal Complication of Peritoneal Inflammation

Sclerosing peritonitis is a rare form of peritoneal inflammation with an often fatal outcome. The major risk factor of sclerosing peritonitis is peritoneal dialysis treatment but it can also occur following renal or liver transplantation or be associated with certain drug treatment. This article gives an overview of reasons and treatment options for sclerosing peritonitis and shows a summery of...

Sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis: a case successfully treated with immunosuppression.

Sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis (SEP) associated with peritoneal dialysis (PD) has been reported frequently since its initial description by Gandhi in 1980 (1). The etiology remains elusive: peritonitis might be the most important risk factor, but acetatebased dialysis solutions, chlorhexidine as a disinfectant, and β−blocking drugs have also been implicated as causative agents. Sclerosing...

Gross calcification of the small bowel in a continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis patient with sclerosing peritonitis.

We present here the case of a continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patient who developed sclerosing calcifying peritonitis with gross macroscopic calcification of the small bowel, a rare and life-threatening complication of sclerosing peritonitis. A 40-year-old female had been on CAPD for 7 years. A peritoneal biopsy during an open cholecystectomy for cholelithiasis showed sclerosin...
