Abstract
We report a case of acute genital swelling in a patient receiving continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis. Physical examination did not identify or localize any defect. Computerized tomography demonstrated extravasation into the left groin and scrotum. Surgical repair of an inguinal hernia resulted in complete resolution of the genital swelling.Keywords
