摘要：

Catheter-related peritonitis is common but rarely caused by fungal infection. We report the first case of PD patients with catheter-related peritonitis form Aureobasidium pullulans, a black yeast-like dematiaceous fungus, and reviewing the relevant literatures. A potential cause of this infection is poor hand hygiene and improper fingernail care. The infection could be prevented if patient and caregiver strictly follow hand-washing protocols.
