Small Bowel Obstruction with a Transition Point in a Patient on Peritoneal Dialysis.

Small bowel obstruction (SBO) is a rare complication of peritoneal dialysis (PD) that is usually seen in patients with encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis. We present a case of SBO that was caused by mechanical obstruction from omental adhesions around the PD catheter. This is the case of 71-year-old female with end-stage renal disease who was recently started on PD and presented with recurrent syncopal episodes and altered mental status.
