Clostridium difficile Peritonitis: An Emerging Infection in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients by Saira Chaughtai, Bhavika Gandhi, Zeeshan Chaughtai, Dana Tarina, Mohammad A. Hossain, Arif Asif

“…In this patient, the peritonitis was caused by transmural translocation of the enteric bacteria. While the peritoneal fluid culture did not grow the organism (possibly because of prior empiric broad-spectrum antibiotics use), the positive PCR on stool analysis suggested C. difficile-related peritonitis, along with the rapid clinical improvement induced by C. difficile-directed therapy (metronidazole) and discontinuation of broad-spectrum antibiotics. …”
