Description

Pasteurella Multicoda is a gram-negative coccobacillus that is commensal to mammals such as domesticated pets and transmitted to humans by scratches or bites. The extent of infection is often limited to soft tissue, bone, and joint.

Disseminated infection by P. multicoda infrequently is typically associated with peritoneal dialysis.

We present a case of disseminated P. multocida infection with bacteremia and peritonitis in a patient with NASH Cirrhosis
