Abstract

Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes) has been associated with shunt infection. The signs of infection are mild. We report on a case of P. acnes shunt infection presenting with massive ascites as the unique sign of CSF infection. Shunt removal, antibiotic therapy and drenaige of ascites were performed with a rapid clinical recovery.
