  • Title: Pleuroperitoneal communication of peritoneal dialysis demonstrated by multidetector-row CT peritoneography.
    Author: Kang TW, Kim CK.
    Journal: Abdom Imaging; 2009 Nov; 34(6):780-2. PubMed ID: 18972150.
    Abstract:
    Hydrothorax as a result of pleuroperitoneal communication is an uncommon complication in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients. CT peritoneography is a useful method for evaluating a wide variety of complications due to CAPD. We report a case of pleuroperitoneal communication with specific imaging features on multidetector-row CT peritoneography (MDCT).
