"Sweet" hydrothorax is a rare complication of peritoneal dialysis (PD). It is characterized by the presence of peritoneal fluid in the pleural cavity. We describe the case of a 41-year-old woman who developed this complication three days after starting continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). We present the current diagnostic approach and treatment of this rare complication.
