Abstract
Abstract: Scrotal edema is a complication in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis patients, and its etiology can be challenging to determine. We performed peritoneal scintigraphy in a case of a patient who developed pronounced scrotal edema following peritoneal dialysis. The imaging revealed clear visualization of the right inguinal canal and right scrotum, suggesting the usefulness of peritoneal scintigraphy in identifying the etiology of scrotal edema in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis patients.
