Coming soonStreptococcal peritonitis is an acute, severe bacterial infection of the peritoneum caused by species of the genus *Streptococcus*, most notably *Streptococcus pyogenes* (group A *Streptococcus*), *Streptococcus pneumoniae*, or viridans group streptococci.
It can manifest as primary spontaneous peritonitis in otherwise healthy individuals, young females, or children, and frequently arises as a catheter-associated complication in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis.
Pathophysiologically, organisms seed the peritoneal cavity via hematogenous dissemination, transluminal or ascending genital tract migration, or intraluminal contamination during dialysis exchanges.
Clinically, it is characterized by diffuse abdominal pain, rebound tenderness, fever, and cloudy peritoneal effluent, with the potential to rapidly progress to bacteremia, toxic shock syndrome, and hemodynamic collapse.
