The haemodialysis patient with night sweats, ascites, and increased CA 125.

The patient is a 47-year-old Philippine woman with congestive heart failure or pulmonary infiltration, but end-stage renal disease since 1996 due to diabetic CT-scan of the chest a few days later revealed infiltrates nephropathy, and the physical examination revealed a tense abdomen but was otherwise normal.

Strict volume control in the treatment of nephrogenic ascites.

Nephrogenic ascites is a component of right-sided cardiac congestion mediated by volume overload, and it should be treated with severe salt restriction and frequent ultrafiltration with haemodialysis and, if that fails, with daily isolatedUltrafiltration.

Peritoneal dialysis underscores its merits in portal hypertensionrelated and nephrogenic ascites.

To rejuvenate interest in PD and to underscore its merits, the use of PD is shared on two extraordinary occasions, where PD was the only way out and tremendously increased quality of life in the patients presented.

A Real Neglected Problem With a Grave Prognosis: Nephrogenic Ascites

A 27-year-old woman with past medical history of diabetes type 1, ESRD secondary to diabetic nephropathy on hemodialysis, bilateral diabetic retinopathy, ovarian cyst, hypertension, and anxiety who presented to the emergency department for evaluation of intractable abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting for 2-day duration was found to have large ascites.

Etiology and Outcomes in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease and Ascites

Most patients with ascites in CKD have an identifiable etiology, and the prognosis of ascites in patients with CKD in this study was dismal.

Nephrogenic Ascites: A Case Series With Review of Literature

A series of eight cases involving patients with refractory ascites subsequently diagnosed as being of renal origin are presented and a review of this condition is provided.

Recurrent ascites following peritoneal dialysis. A new syndrome?

Four patients with end-stage renal failure developed recurrent ascites following one or more peritoneal dialyses with hypertonic dialysis solution (7% dextrose), which persisted during the first few months of intermittent hemodialysis therapy and, in two cases, resolved following laparotomy.

Although treatment options are limited, continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis, peritoneovenous shunt placement, and renal transplantation appear to be effective in controlling ascites formation.
