Abdominal wall calcification in a peritoneal dialysis patient.

ABSTRACT

Abdominal wall calcification in a peritoneal dialysis patient has not previously been reported. We describe a 40-year-old lady, a type 2 diabetic and hypertensive for the past 14 years, who did not have any history, clinical features or laboratory results suggesting autoimmune disease, and had not suffered from tuberculosis in the past, but who had been diagnosed with chronic kidney disease in 2016. She had initiated peritoneal dialysis in December 2018.
