ABSTRACT
Cedecea davisae is a motile, Gram-negative rod in the family Enterobacteriaceae which is positive for lipase, DNase and catalase, and negative for gelatinase and oxidase. This bacterium is rarely isolated in the clinical specimens. We isolated C. davisae from the ascitic fluid of a 49-year old male patient with liver cirrhosis who was diagnosed as acute bacterial peritonitis. Bacterial identification was performed by API 20E and VITEK. Antimicrobial susceptibility test showed that the isolate was susceptible to cefotaxime, piperacillin, and imipenem. Peritonitis of this patient was improved by imipenem therapy. This is the first reported case of peritonitis caused by this organism.
