Abstract
A patient receiving intermittent peritoneal dialysis is reported in whom the peritoneal fluid became milky white without apparent cause 4 months after insertion of his most recent Tenckhoff catheter. Analysis of the fluid revealed elevated triglyceride content and a normal cell count, consistent with chylous ascites. Peritoneal dialysis was continued, and the condition improved spontaneously without treatment.Entities:
