  • Title: Hemophilus and pneumococcal peritonitis in children with the nephrotic syndrome.
    Author: Rubin HM, Blau EB, Michaels RH.
    Journal: Pediatrics; 1975 Oct; 56(4):598-601. PubMed ID: 241048.
    Abstract:
    Two children are reported whose nephrotic syndrome was complicated by peritonitis due to H. influenzae type b. In Pittsburgh, the leading organism for peritonitis in nephrosis remains D. pneumoniae with a disproportionately high incidence in black children. Although H. influenzae is a rare cause of this complication, it should be considered along with the other previously recognized etiological bacterial agents.
