Core Tip	Edwardsiella tarda (E. tarda) belongs to the family Enterobacteriaceae and causes infections mainly in fish but is also capable of causing both localized and systemic infections in humans. Extraintestinal infections occur in patients with certain risk factors, including immuno-compromised status, and chronic kidney diseases or diabetes mellitus. In the immuno-compromised or patients with significant underlying disease who have extraintestinal disease, prognosis is related to the extent of infection and the ability for source control. We present the first known case of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis due to E. tarda in an immuno-compromised dialysis patient.
