Recurrent Pseudomonas luteola (CDC group Ve-1) peritonitis occurred in a patient undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis. Catheter removal was required for cure despite therapy based on antibiotic susceptibilities. This is the third report in the English literature of severe P. luteola infection and the first report of peritonitis caused by this organism.
