RESUMEN
Peritoneal dialysis (PD)-associated peritonitis is linked to increased mortality rates and transfer to haemodialysis or PD discontinuation. Rare and emerging pathogens can pose challenges in management. We present the first case of PD peritonitis caused by Elizabethkingia miricola through direct contamination, which was successfully treated with intraperitoneal and oral antibiotics.
