Abstract
Two patients(pts) on CAPD developed abdominal abscesses between 1986 and 1994. During this period, 206 pts cared for in our CAPD unit developed 418 episodes of peritonitis. Two pts developed intra- peritoneal abscesses associated with prior peritonitis. One of these episodes of peritonitis was due to pseu- domonas, the other Mycobaeterium tuberculosis with a concomitant exit site infection and leakage. CT scan or ultrasonogram and abscessogram confirmed the abscess. Both pts underwent percutaneous drainage with successful resolution of the abscesses. None of these pts developed recurrence of the abscess. Ab- dominal abscess is a potential, though rare, complica- tion of CAPD associated peritonitis, occurring in 0.5 % of all peritonitis episodes.
