Abstract
A peritoneal dialysis patient with cirrhosis presented with drowsiness, vomiting, and mild hyponatremia. Despite no active correction of hyponatremia, she developed convulsion and quadriplegia. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain showed changes of osmotic demyelination syndrome. This case illustrates that osmotic demyelination syndrome may occur in peritoneal dialysis without rapid correction of hyponatremia.
