ABSTRACT

Peritoneal dialysis treatment generates significant amounts of waste for disposal from patients' homes. In Australia, in the days after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, waste collection from homes was temporarily stopped. Our patient tried to dispose of his waste by burning the used bags and tubing, using paint thinner as an accelerant. We present a case report of the unusual neurological complication he developed.
