Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis: A Rare Incidence by Achromobacter xylosidans

Liver cirrhosis results from progressive hepatic fibrosis and is generally considered irreversible. One of the many consequences of cirrhosis is spontaneous bacterial peritonitis. This typically presents in patients with decompensated cirrhosis due to bacterial translocation, most commonly from the intestinal bacterial flora seeding into the ascitic fluid. We present a rare case of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis caused by
