Pseudomonas sp. group Ve-2 bacterial peritonitis in a patient on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis.

Pseudomonas sp. group Ve-2 peritonitis occurred in a patient on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis who had recently completed intraperitoneal cephalosporin therapy for culture-negative peritonitis. This is the second reported case of peritonitis in this population of patients due to this unusual organism, which is usually resistant to most cephalosporin antibiotics.
