A peritoneal dialysis patient with fatal culture-negative peritonitis

Culture‐negative peritoneal inflammation accounts for between 5 and 20% of cases of peritonitis in peritoneal dialysis patients.

description Culture‐negative peritoneal inflammation accounts for between 5 and 20% of cases of peritonitis in peritoneal dialysis patients. Diagnostic yields may be enhanced considerably by reculturing dialysate effluents using appropriate collection methods and optimal laboratory techniques (including prolonged low‐temperature and anaerobic incubations). In patients with persistent culture‐negative peritonitis, consideration should be given to the possibilities of unusual or fastidious microorganisms (especially fungi and mycobacteria) and non‐infective causes (especially drug reactions, malignancy, visceral inflammation and retroperitoneal inflammation). In this paper, an illustrative case of persistent culture‐negative peritonitis is presented followed by a discussion of the investigative approach to such patients, with particular emphasis on differential diagnosis and the limitations of currently available tests.
