RESUMO
The presence of peritoneal implants detected by computered axial tomography (CT) is usually related to mesothelial primary neoformative processes or, more frequently to peritoneal metastasis or peritoneal carcinomatosis. Although the higher prevalence of neoplastic processes in the chronic renal failure population, the association of peritoneal implants and constitutional syndrome is not always correlated to peritoneal carcinomatosis. We present the case of two patients with chronic renal failure in hemodialysis programme, with abdominal insidious clinical, constitutional syndrome and similar peritoneal implants seen by CAT: the histologic analysis of peritoneal implants gave the definitive diagnostic of secondary amyloidosis and peritoneal tuberculosis respectively.
