The enlarged kidney occupied a major portion of the pelvic cavity (CT without a contrast medium, coronal view). b PD fluid containing contrast media injected from the PD catheter is found in the lumen of the sigmoid colon and the rectum (CT peritoneography, scout view). c PD catheter interacting with the sigmoid colon. Contrast media injected through the PD catheter (arrowhead) flows into the luminal side of the sigmoid colon (arrow) through a hole (top: CT peritoneography, horizontal image, bottom: magnification of lesion)
