Abstract

ABSTRACT This study aimed to explore the diagnosis and treatment of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) complicating peritoneal dialysis. We conducted this retrospective analysis of the clinical data of one patient with SAP complicating peritoneal dialysis and thoroughly reviewed the pertinent literature. In this case, acute pancreatitis in the patient on peritoneal dialysis was accompanied by hypertriglyceridemia. Treatment included fasting, fluid rehydration support, gastrointestinal decompression, anti-infective measures, and combined hemodialysis. Despite these interventions, the patient's condition continued to deteriorate. She eventually opted to discontinue treatment and died at home. Peritoneal dialysis complicated by SAP represents an acute and severe condition necessitating prompt recognition and appropriate treatment.
