Transvaginal leak of peritoneal dialysate demonstrated by CT peritoneography.
CT peritoneography is the investigation of choice for suspected leaks or hernias in patients on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). We report a case of transvaginal leak of peritoneal dialysate in a young woman, confirmed by CT peritoneography. CAPD has been successfully recommenced following the repair of a left vaginal vault erosion.
