title: [Conservative treatment of perforation of the transverse colon caused by a catheter for continuous peritoneal dialysis. A case report].
abstract: In rare cases of intestinal perforation in patients dialysed peritoneally may be the dialyzing catheter introduced into the peritoneal cavity for repeated use. The therapeutic procedure (conservative or operative) is the matter of dispute. The authors present a female patient, aged 62, undergoing intermittent peritoneal dialysis for terminal renal failure. The perforation of the transverse colon due to the dialyzing catheter was successfully treated conservatively: the catheter was removed, antibacterial drugs, parenteral nutrition and bedrest were administered. Uraemia was controlled by haemodialysis.
