Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae as a cause of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis.

Daniel M Musher1, Aran Cunningham Nichol, Adriana M Rueda.   

Abstract

Haemophilus influenzae rarely causes spontaneous bacterial peritonitis. We describe a typical case of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis in which the causative organism was identified as nontypeable H. influenzae, biotype III. Infection progressed despite the presence of adequate serum bactericidal antibody, probably due to the absence of complement in ascites fluid.
