“…Data suggest that the placement of a peritoneal-venous shunt may result in a reduction of ascites without significant hemodynamic instability [ 16 , 17 ]. However short and long-term complications of the shunt may result in unwanted morbidities [ 18 ].…”

“…About one-third of patients develop cachexia [ 3 , 10 ]. Kidney transplantation is the only definitive treatment with a resulting resolution of ascites within six weeks of transplantation in almost all patients [ 5 , 18 ]. Ascites often recurs after the loss of the transplant function, regardless of the underlying reason for transplant failure, as seen in our reported patient [ 3 , 5 , 16 ].…”

Nephrogenic ascites or dialysis-associated ascites is a rare condition that develops in patients with endstage renal disease (ESRD) who have been on long-term hemodialysis. It is characterized by rapidly accumulating ascites that is often recurrent and resistant to standard treatment. The diagnosis typically requires the exclusion of common causes of ascites including possible hepatic, cardiac, malignant, and infectious etiologies. Nephrogenic ascites generally has a poor prognosis. Renal transplantation is the sole definitive cure for this difficult-to-treat clinical entity, however, majority of the affected patients are usually deemed unsuitable candidates for transplantation.In this communication, the authors presented a rare case of nephrogenic ascites that posed a therapeutic challenge in an ESRD patient on regular hemodialysis along with a brief review of the literature regarding the pathogenesis, clinical features, and outcome of nephrogenic ascites.

Introducción: existe una amplia variedad de manifestaciones clínicas gastrointestinales que pueden aumentar el deterioro de la calidad de vida en los pacientes con enfermedad renal crónica (ERC), que son manejables si se detectan adecuadamente.Objetivo: el objetivo de este trabajo es realizar una actualización y revisión analítica de la literatura sobre las manifestaciones en el tracto digestivo de pacientes con deterioro crónico de la función renal.Resultados: los resultados indican que algunos de los signos y síntomas sobre el tracto gastrointestinal de los pacientes con ERC son individuales, y predominan los síntomas inespecíficos como la anorexia, las náuseas y el vómito, los cuales pueden controlarse con una adecuada terapia de reemplazo renal; mientras que otros, más raros, como la ascitis asociada a la diálisis, empobrece el pronóstico e ilustra la necesidad de trasplante.
