Abstrakt | Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis ia a hematogenic infection of ascitic fluis occuring in immunodeficient patients with decompresated liver cirrhosis. The most common causative organisms of this monobacterial infection include enterobacteria and Gram-positive cocci. Clinical features are varied and typical signs of infection may be absent. The diagnosis is supported by a significant increase of white blood cells count in ascitic fluid. The therapy of choice is cefotaxime 2g/8 hours. The recurrence rate of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis in the first year is 70%. Recurrence is preventable by intestinal decontamination with norfloxacin. | |
