Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is frequently used for renal replacement therapy due to its benefits such as patient independence and cost-efficiency. However, it can be accompanied by rare but potentially serious complications. We report an unusual case involving the development of an intraperitoneal pseudocyst in a patient undergoing long-term peritoneal dialysis. This rare entity, encapsulating the tip of the dialysis catheter, demanded surgical intervention. The underlying mechanisms remain speculative, though prior infections and intra-abdominal interventions appear contributory. Greater understanding of both common and uncommon PD complications is vital, as is further investigation into the etiology and optimal management strategies for pseudocyst formation.
