Route Of Infection

We present a peritoneal dialysis (PD) patient who had a renal biopsy performed during an episode of urosepsis and subsequently presented with a renal abscess at the biopsy site along with concurrent peritonitis. Microbiology from the PD effluent and from the renal abscess were both positive for Klebsiella pneumoniae. We propose that the PD peritonitis was the result of seeding of the peritoneal cavity with bacteria from the renal abscess. Successful treatment was achieved through drainage of the abscess and intraperitoneal antibiotics.

AbstractPeritonitis remains a major complication of peritoneal dialysis which is usually caused by saprophytic gram positive microorganisms originated from skin. Here, I report an unusual case of peritonitis due to Moraxella catarrhalis.A male, 59 age, on peritoneal dialysis modality because ESRD due to diabetic nephropathy was admitted to our hospital due to CAPD peritonitis. After initial empiric treatment and identification of this infrequent causer, he was submitted to two week antibiotic treatment with complete recovery and good prognosis.Peritonitis is the major cause of peritoneal dialysis failure which requires prompt recognition of the causative agent for successful treatment.

Clostridium difficileis one of the most common nosocomial pathogens and the cause of pseudomembranous colitis in cases of prior antimicrobial exposure. Extraintestinal manifestations ofC. difficileare uncommon and rarely reported. We report the first successfully treated case of catheter-relatedC. difficileperitonitis in a patient undergoing peritoneal dialysis.
