Abstract

Peritonitis is an important cause of morbidity in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis. Rothia mucilaginosa has been reported as an unusual cause of peritoneal dialysis associated peritonitis. Difficulty in the management of this microorganism lies in the absence of uniform recommendations for anti-microbial therapy directed against this pathogen. The current report describes the clinical course of an episode of peritoneal dialysis associated peritonitis caused by Rothia mucilaginosa. Treatment options for this organism are summarized.

摘要

腹膜炎是腹膜透析患者发病率的重要原因。黏罗斯菌已被报道为一种不常见的腹膜透析相关性腹膜炎的病因。这种微生物的管理困难在于针对这种病原体的抗菌治疗缺乏统一的建议。本报告描述了一例由黏罗斯菌引起的腹膜透析相关性腹膜炎的临床经过。总结了针对这种病原体的治疗选择。
