Abstract
An unusual case of spontaneous peritonitis of cirrhosis associated with Campylobacter fetus is reported. This microaerophilic gram-negative bacillus has been increasingly associated with human disease recently, particularly in patients with cirrhosis. The infection is characteristically relapsing in nature and requires protracted antimicrobial therapy.Entities:
