Patients were examined in terms of PD catheter complications, dialysis liquidleakage, hernia, intra-abdominal collection, sclerosing encapsulated peritonitis, and perforation.Results: The mean duration of PD treatment was 39,4 months (range 4-180). The ratio of complications detected in CTis 93% (n=26). Four findings were detected in 1 patient (3.5%), three findings in 10 patients (39%), two findings in 7 patients(25%), and a finding in 8 patients (28.5%). The most common finding was PD cathether malposition (n=21, 75%).Others were hernia (n=18, 64%), dialysis liquid leakage (n=14, 50%), sclerosing encapsulated peritonitis (n=2, 7%), andsubcutaneous emphysema (n=1, 3.5%).Conclusion: Abdominal CT is an effective imaging method to demonstrate PD-related complications. PD cathethermalposition, hernia, and dialysis liquid leakage were the most common complications.en10.14744/ejmi.2019.12015info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessArticle311922360357
