Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization-Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry Accelerates Pathogen Identification and May Confer Benefit in the Outcome of Peritoneal Dialysis-Related Peritonitis.

abstract：:Capnocytophaga is a genus of gram-negative rods involved mainly in bacteremia in immunocompromised hosts. Here we report a case of Capnocytophaga peritonitis in a patient undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis. The disease appeared as a superinfection during antimicrobial therapy of a previous episode of...
