  • Title: Listeria monocytogenes peritonitis in an HIV-infected patient.
    Author: Sia C, Wilson S, Ananda-Rajah M, Mills J, Aung AK.
    Journal: Clin Nephrol; 2017 May; 87 (2017)(5):267-270. PubMed ID: 27345188.
    Abstract:
    We report the first case of Listeria monocytogenes peritoneal dialysis (PD) peritonitis in a human immunodeficiency virus-infected individual successfully treated with intraperitoneal ampicillin, without the need for catheter removal. Suspicion of listerial infection in at-risk individuals is critical as empiric antimicrobial treatment for PD-associated infections may be ineffective against this organism.
