Mechanical and technical complications associated with a peritoneal dialysis catheter are seen frequently but inserting the catheter into the bladder is a rare complication. The Tenchkoff catheter was inserted into the bladder accidentally in a 64-year-old male patient and this complication was understood by the beginning of peritoneal dialysis (PD). This is the first case reported in the national literature. It is presented to highlight the importance of this complication that may be asymptomatic until the initiation of PD treatment.

“…Complications of CAPD using the Tenckhoff catheter may be classified as infectious or mechanical [3]. Mechanical complications are mostly catheter related and include obstruction of the flow, leakage of the peritoneal fluid, ventral and inguinal hernias, catheter malposition or malfunction, and intra-abdominal organ injury [2,3].…”

“…One of the purposes of our original report was to encourage the aggressive withdrawal of immunosupressants and I am puzzled by the rationale of continuing such immunosuppression in the absence of clinical disease. Although only one of their death cases was of an infectious nature (fungal peritonitis), the remainder were due to vascular complications, yet we now know that the quality and quantity of immunosuppression result in endothelial dysfunction [3], which promotes vascular disease and which may be responsible for the high incidence of graft coronary artery disease in transplants [4].…”
