We report the first case of Streptococcus gordonii-related continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) peritonitis. He is a 69-year-old man with end-stage renal failure due to chronic glomerulonephritis who had been put on CAPD for 1 year. He was successfully treated with a 2-week course of cefazolin. This case highlights the emerging threat that S. gordonii can be the source of infection in patients on CAPD.
我们报告了首例与戈登链球菌相关的持续性不卧床腹膜透析（CAPD）腹膜炎病例。患者为 69 岁男性，因慢性肾小球肾炎导致终末期肾衰竭，已行 CAPD 治疗 1 年。经过 2 周头孢唑林治疗后，患者成功治愈。该病例提示，戈登链球菌可能成为 CAPD 患者感染源的这一新兴威胁。
