Abstract
We report a case of acute genital swelling in a patient receiving cont inuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis. Physical examination did not id entify or localize any defect. Computerized tomography demonstrated ex travasation into the left groin and scrotum. Surgical repair of an ing uinal hernia resulted in complete resolution of the genital swelling.
