    Author: Makharia GK, Sharma BC, Bhasin DK, Singh K.
    Journal: J Clin Gastroenterol; 1998 Oct; 27(3):269-70. PubMed ID: 9802463.
    Abstract:
    Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) is classically described in patients with cirrhosis and nephrotic syndrome. However, SBP rarely occurs in patients with malignant ascites. We report a patient with gastric cancer with ascites, who developed SBP. Clinicians need to be aware of this complication in patients with malignant ascites.
