Peritonitis is a common, major complication in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients and tuberculous(TB) peritonitis has been reported to constitute 1-2% of all peritonitis cases. In CAPD patients, TB peritonitis is often diagnosedlate and has a high mortality rate. In a recent recommendation made regarding the treatment of TB peritonitis, primaryremoval of a peritoneal dialysis catheter has been advised in addition to anti-TB drugs. Here, we describe two cases of TBperitonitis in CAPD patients successfully treated without peritoneal dialysis catheter removal.
