However, in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients, pneumoperitoneum can occur without such severe underlying pathology, frequently due to air entering during dialysis exchanges.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Case report:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This case report discusses a 64-year-old male with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on PD who presented with abdominal pain and distention. The patient reported an incident during a PD session where his dialysis bag became unusually filled with air, coinciding with the onset of symptoms. CT imaging revealed significant free intraperitoneal air, initially raising concerns for gastrointestinal perforation. However, the absence of acute symptoms and stable clinical presentation indicated a nonpathological cause. The patient underwent bedside aspiration of the pneumoperitoneum, resulting in immediate symptom relief.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Clinical discussion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Pneumoperitoneum in a PD patient requires careful evaluation to differentiate nonpathological causes from serious conditions.
