A 73-year-old man was maintained on contiuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis for 3 years. The patient presented to our hospital with chief complaints of abdominal pain, fever and cloudy dialysate. He was treated empirically with intraperitoneal cefazolin and amikacin for suspected PD-releated peritonitis. On the third treatment, small intestinal perforation developed. A laparotomy was performed, revealing perforations of the jejenum. The perforations were sutured primarily. After the operation, anastomotic leakage from the primary suture region was revealed. He died due to sepsis-associated cardiovascular collapse.
