Sponsor's own description

Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) is an infection of the peritoneal cavity with no surgically treatable intra-abdominal source of infection. Spontaneous peritonitis is a potentially fatal complication in patients with advanced liver cirrhosis. It is estimated that 10-20 % of patients with cirrhotic ascites may develop spontaneous peritonitis, which is usually caused by a bacterial infection. In contrast, spontaneous fungal peritonitis (SFP) is less well-recognized. SFP may be associated with higher mortality rates than SBP but therapeutic approaches are largely undefined. To this end, the epidemiology and outcomes of patients with SFP have only been documented sporadically aimed to evaluate the risk factors for the development of spontaneous fungal peritonitis (SFP), and the prognosis of SFP compared with SBP
