Figure3
A plain abdominal computed tomography (CT) was performed to confirm the position (Figure 3).
Fluoroscopic image showing the PD catheter being pulled back out of the bladder, with contrast through catheter tracking along the intestinal walls and no bladder filling (a) followed by repositioning of the tip in the right iliac fossa, away from the bladder with no evidence of bladder leak (b).
