A case is reported in a 47-yr-old man who developed peritonitis due to Trichosporon cutaneum [T. beigelii] following CAPD treatment. The patient was treated with flucytosine and amphotericin B, but the peritonitis persisted. Fluconazole therapy appeared to be successful, but the patient subsequently died.
