Coming soon*Citrobacter* peritonitis is an uncommon, severe intra-abdominal infection characterized by inflammation of the peritoneal lining caused by facultative anaerobic, gram-negative bacilli of the genus *Citrobacter* (most frequently *Citrobacter freundii* or *Citrobacter koseri*).
This clinical state occurs primarily as a healthcare-associated or opportunistic complication in individuals undergoing peritoneal dialysis, as well as in patients with intra-abdominal pathology, gastrointestinal perforation, or immunosuppression.
Hallmark features include abdominal pain, rebound tenderness, systemic signs of infection such as fever, and cloudy peritoneal effluent exhibiting elevated leukocyte counts.
Due to the organism's propensity for inducible beta-lactamase production and multidrug resistance, these infections carry elevated risks of treatment failure, peritoneal catheter removal, and morbidity.
