However, distinguishing between turbidity caused by peritonitis and that induced by drug administration can be challenging. To better understand this phenomenon, data were collected between April 2020 and March 2023 from 287 peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients undergoing benidipine-controlled blood pressure management in our PD center. Among these patients, 25 cases (8.71%) developed non-infectious chyloperitoneum as an adverse reaction to benidipine. Turbidity appeared, on average, 25.28 ± 60.55 days after starting benidipine. Switching to another antihypertensive drug cleared the dialysate within 12 to 36 hours. Laboratory results, including smears and cultures, were consistent with a non-infectious state. Elevated triglyceride (TG) levels were observed in the turbid dialysate (<i>p</i> < 0.0001), with a mean TG of 0.28 ± 0.17 mmol/L in cloudy samples, compared to 0.07 ± 0.03 mmol/L in clear samples. No significant changes in cholesterol or peripheral blood TG levels were found before or after the occurrence of turbidity. This study confirms that benidipine can cause non-infectious chyloperitoneum, underscoring the need for attention to adverse drug reactions to avoid unnecessary resource use. Further investigation is required to guide antihypertensive medication choices in PD patients.</p>","PeriodicalId":19969,"journal":{"name":"Peritoneal Dialysis International","volume":" ","pages":"8968608241307829"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142864954","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The patient experienced persistent diarrhea due to diabetic neuropathy, significantly impairing his daily functioning. Despite transitioning from hemodialysis to peritoneal dialysis, the diarrhea persisted. A colostomy was subsequently performed, which, although it did not completely resolve the diarrhea, allowed for better control, improving the patient's self-care and independence. Notably, the catheter exit site was maintained on the opposite side of the abdomen. Despite initial concerns about the feasibility of peritoneal dialysis (PD) in patients with stomas, including the challenges of creating a stoma in patients with an existing PD catheter, this case demonstrates the successful continuation of PD following a colostomy. Traditionally, intestinal stomas have been viewed as a relative contraindication to PD due to risks such as leakage and infection. However, current guidelines recommend using extended catheters with a presternal exit site to minimize these risks. The patient's quality of life improved significantly after the colostomy, with no major complications observed during follow-up. This report underscores the importance of tailoring treatment to individual patient needs, balancing risks with potential well-being benefits, and highlights the necessity of interdisciplinary collaboration and adherence to best practices.
