Ascites is the most common complication of the decompansated cirrhosis. The most common organisms isolated in patients with ascidic fluid infections and spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) are intestinal pathogens including Escherichia coli, Gram-positive cocci (mainly Streptococcus species) and Enterococci. As an infectious pathogen Vagococcus spp. can be isolated from animals such as pigs, cats, horses and fishes and also rarely in humans. In this paper, we present a case of Vagococcus fluvialis peritonitis which is the first one reported in a cirrhotic patient with ascites.

D010538 Peritonitis INFLAMMATION of the PERITONEUM lining the ABDOMINAL CAVITY as the result of infectious, autoimmune, or chemical processes. Primary peritonitis is due to infection of the PERITONEAL CAVITY via hematogenous or lymphatic spread and without intra-abdominal source. Secondary peritonitis arises from the ABDOMINAL CAVITY itself through RUPTURE or ABSCESS of intra-abdominal organs.
