Fungal peritonitis in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis.
Fungal peritonitis represents one of the most serious complications in patients on peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). The therapy often consists of peritoneal catheter extraction and patient recruitment to hemodialysis. For some of the patients the peritoneal dialysis is the only way of dialysis, due to inability to perform a permanent vascular access. In this study we present 13 patients with fungal ...
متن کاملCat-induced Pasteurella multocida peritonitis in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis
Pasteurella multocida is a zoonotic pathogen found in the oral cavities of both domestic and wild animals. Although P. multocida has been involved in a wide range of human diseases, only a limited number of studies on P. multocida peritonitis in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD) had been carried out. We herein present the case of P. multocida peritonitis in a patient undergoing conti...
متن کاملTuberculous peritonitis in a patient undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis.
Complication of peritonitis developed in a 61 year old patient who was undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) and whose dialysate culture was negative for both aerobic and anaerobic bacteria and fungi. Despite the administration of various antibiotics and repeated mechanical lavages, inflammatory response and fever could not be controlled and therefore on the 8th hospital d...
متن کاملRhodococcus equi peritonitis in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis.
The human Rhodococcus equi (R. equi) infection is now emerging, although extrapulmonary manifestation and isolation from patients without human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection remains unusual. Considerable effort is required to correctly identify and diagnose this facultative pathogen in patients with peritonitis in end-stage renal failure (ESRF) on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialy...
متن کاملPeritonitis in patients undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis.
A simple laboratory method for culture of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) fluids is described. Guidelines for antimicrobial therapy are discussed based on results from 18 patients studied over an 11-week period. Cephalosporins appeared to be a rational choice for therapy while awaiting laboratory results.
