Dialysis in pregnant women with chronic kidney disease.

abstract：:A patient with newly diagnosed end-stage renal disease (ESRD) received a femoral catheter for hemodialysis (HD). Shortly thereafter he developed fever, and blood cultures grew methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. The catheter was removed and the patient was treated with both vancomycin and rifampin; however, b...
