Sclerosing peritonitis complicated by sepsis: a potential cause of portal hypertension.

Abstract:

:A 27-year-old woman with chronic renal failure, who had been treated with chronic ambulatory peritoneal dialysis and had developed sclerosing peritonitis, was admitted to the hospital with intra-abdominal sepsis. In spite of antibiotic therapy, sepsis recurred and was associated with intrahepatic cholestasis. In addition, over a period of about 4.5 weeks she developed hepatomegaly and portal hypertension unassociated with occlusion of the portal vein or one of its main extrahepatic branches. A wedge biopsy of the liver revealed extensive thick fibrosis of the liver capsule, intrahepatic cholestasis, diffuse swelling of hepatocytes, central veins that were difficult to visualize and small portal tracts. It is suggested that the sepsis was responsible for the intrahepatic cholestasis, swelling of hepatocytes and hepatomegaly. It is also suggested that the rigidity of the fibrotic liver capsule provided resistance to the development of hepatomegaly, with the result that intrahepatic pressure increased (compressing intrahepatic branches of the portal vein as well as portal tracts and central veins) and portal hypertension developed.
