Abstract
Objective

To assess the usefulness of peritoneal cavity scintigraphy and the contribution of SPECT/CT in patients on peritoneal dialysis with suspected leak.

Methodology

An observational case series study is carried out. It consists of a longitudinal, retrospective and descriptive study. 11 patients on peritoneal dialysis were studied and it was realiced a peritoneal cavity scintigraphy test and SPECT/CT to evaluate a peritoneal leak.

Results

In 54,5% of the patients, a positive study of peritoneal leak was obtained. The most frequent localitations were in the abdominal wall at the catheter entry level and the inguinal hernia. In the cases with sintomatology like pain and celullitis of the subcutaneous tract of the cateter the frequent of leak was 100%. There was a change in therapeutic management in patients with a positive study. There was not relevant changes in initial dialysis regimen in patients with a negative study. In this cases, except for one patient who required hemodialysis, all patients experienced clinical improvement.

Conclusions

Peritoneal scintigraphy and SPECT/CT study are non-invasive techniques that allow an adequate diagnosis and subsequent management of peritoneal leak.

Resumen
Objetivo

Valorar la utilidad de la gammagrafía de cavidad peritoneal y la aportación del SPECT/CT en pacientes en diálisis peritoneal con sospecha de fuga.

Metodología

Se realiza un estudio observacional serie de casos. Consiste en un estudio longitudinal, retrospectivo y descriptivo en el cual se estudian 11 pacientes en diálisis peritoneal, que se realizaron gammagrafía de cavidad peritoneal y SPECT/CT por sospecha de fuga.

Resultados

En el 54,5% de los pacientes se obtuvo estudio positivo de fuga peritoneal, cuyas localizaciones más frecuentes se encuentran en pared abdominal a nivel de entrada de catéter y en hernia inguinal. En los pacientes con dolor y celulitis del trayecto subcutáneo del catéter se visualizó con más frecuencia fuga en la gammagrafía.

En los pacientes con estudio positivo hubo un cambio en el manejo terapéutico. En los pacientes con estudio negativo no se hicieron cambios relevantes en la pauta de diálisis inicial, con mejoría clínica en todos ellos, salvo un caso que requirió hemodiálisis.

Conclusiones

La gammagrafía peritoneal y el estudio SPECT/CT son técnicas no invasivas que permiten un adecuado diagnóstico y posterior manejo de fuga peritoneal.
