Fungal peritonitis at a tertiary care community teaching hospital: epidemiology, treatments, and outcome over a 3 year timespan.

Fungal species isolated from the peritoneal cavity over a 3-year period were equally divided among dialysis and intra-abdominal sources and demonstrated that triazole antifungal susceptible species predominated. The evolution toward triazole-resistant species/strains noted in bloodstream infections has not yet developed in fungal peritonitis. A trend toward non-albicans species in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) cases, however, requires careful monitoring. .
