Neurological complications of varicella zoster virus (VZV) reactivation have rarely been described in dialysis patients. We report a case of a continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patient who developed herpes zoster encephalitis. The patient was treated with acyclovir and steroids and had a slow but complete return to her prior cognitive status. The available literature is reviewed and the differential diagnosis with acyclovir toxicity is discussed.

Chylous ascites is a rare complication in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis. It may occur due to traumatic peritoneal dialysis catheter insertion or other causes. It is important to be aware of this condition as it may be confused with peritonitis, and antibiotics may be inappropriately administered. We report a case of chylous ascites occurring after catheter insertion and discuss management of this condition.
