Abstract

Exophiala (Wangiella) dermatitidis is a dermatiaceous mold that is an occasional cause of infection in the immunocompromised. We report a case of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis-associated peritonitis probably due to environmental contamination with this organism. Prompt catheter removal and aggressive treatment with amphotericin B allowed an eventual return to peritoneal dialysis.
