| description | Abstract Paracoccus yeei, a Gram‐negative coccobacillus, is an emergent opportunistic pathogen. It originates from soil and water. VITEK and MALDI‐TOF are used for identification. There are few reports of peritoneal dialysis peritonitis. Its presentation is usually indolent. It can be successfully treated with several antibiotics: β‐lactams, aminoglycosides, without removing the catheter. |
