Stenotrophomonas maltophilia peritonitis has been only occasionally reported in patients undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). Because this microorganism has multi-drug resistance, its treatment is hard and long-term. The treatment might not be successful despite all the efforts and the process of peritoneal dialysis, and may terminate with loss of the catheter. In the present paper, S. maltophilia peritonitis developed in a 6-year-old girl patient, who underwent peritoneal dialysis due to bilateral dysplastic kidney, suffered from episodes of peritonitis frequently and required hospitalization, was presented with literature data. Even though the case received multiple antibiotic treatment and underwent endoluminal brushing (EB), the success of treatment could not be achieved. To the best of our knowledge, this patient is the youngest case in the literature.
