抄録
<p>A 60-year-old man with end-stage renal disease due to nephrosclerosis had a peritoneal dialysis catheter (PD) embedded with stepwise initiation of peritoneal dialysis using Moncrief and Popovich's technique three months ago. PD was initiated three weeks after creating an exit site. He presented with abdominal pain and fever a day before admission and was diagnosed with PD-associated peritonitis caused by Streptococcus oralis. Medical consultation after admission revealed a history of wisdom tooth extraction following PD catheter placement, resulting in delayed wound healing. Transient bacteremia can occur after tooth extraction, leading to PD-associated peritonitis. Contemplating the oral milieu in patients undergoing PD is pertinent. </p>
