A 38-year-old man underwent peritoneal dialysis (PD) in May 2011 due to chronic renal failure with chronic glomerulonephritis. In early February 2012, he underwent laparoscopy to salvage and correct a malpositioned PD catheter. The laparoscopic intra-abdominal findings revealed turbid ascites and multiple fibrin lumps, despite the patient's lack of history of peritonitis. Based on these findings, in addition to the presence of continuous inflammation and ascites, a diagnosis of pre-encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis was suspected, and the treatment was switched from PD to hemodialysis. The administration of prednisolone at a dose of 20 mg/day and peritoneal lavage resulted in a decrease in the ascites and fibrin lumps.
