dc.description.abstractKocuria kristinae is a gram-positive coccus of Micrococcaceae family. Kocuria kristinae inhabits the skin and mucous membranes. It can cause opportunistic infections in patients with indwelling devices and severe underlying diseases. We describe here a case of acute peritonitis caused by Kocuria kristinae in a patient on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). Additionally, a review of other reported CAPD related peritonitis by Kocuria kristinae is provided. The importance of Kocuria kristinae as a pathogen in patients with CAPD peritonitis should not be underestimated.
