%X Insertion of peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter into the bladder is a rare complication of PD. Herein, we describe a case of an adult patient, diabetic for a long time undergoing PD tube insertion who was found to have a catheter in the urinary bladder. He was treated after waiting for the bladder breach with indwelling bladder catheterization with repositioning of the same catheter, and prophylactic antibiotics. The evolution is marked by the regression of the symptomatology and the survival of the technique. This report gives a timely reminder of the need to check for urinary bladder distension prior to PD catheter insertion surgery. Perforating injuries should be considered in patients with symptoms related to the urinary tract and free flow of fluid from the PD tube.
