Abstract
We report a case of peritonitis in a continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis patient with an unusual bacterium known as group Ve-2. This is the first reported case of peritonitis attributable to this organism and only the second well-documented case of infection with this organism in the English literature.Keywords
