Peritoneal dialysis (PD) related peritonitis caused by fungi is a potentially life-threatening complication. It diminishes prospects of continuing PD. We report a patient with Aspergillus terreus peritonitis treated successfully with catheter removal and antifungal therapy and subsequently had a live-related renal transplantation. There was no recurrence of the infection in 3 years of follow-up.
真菌引起的腹膜透析(PD)相关腹膜炎是一种潜在的危及生命的并发症。它降低了继续进行腹膜透析的可能性。我们报告了一名患有土曲霉腹膜炎的患者,通过拔除导管和抗真菌治疗成功治愈,随后接受了活体亲属肾移植。在3年的随访中感染没有复发。
