We analysed 27 patients (15 women and 12 men) on CAPD treatment, between 6 months and 7 years at the Clinic of Nephrology, Clinical Center of Serbia, in Belgrade. Patients were between 22 and 72 years old. The main causes of pulmonary abnormalities were infections (5), hypervolaemia, hypoproteinaemia and heart failure (13). We had 11 patients (40.74%) with 18 pulmonary abnormalities: bronchopneumonia (2 pts), pleuritis sicca (1 pt), pleural effusion (10 pts): unilateral (4) and bilateral (7). Three patients had recurrent pulmonary infections and pulmonary abnormalities. All patients recovered and continued treatment with CAPD.
