Overview
Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis is most commonly caused by Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, and Streptococcus salivarius. Other causes include Aerobic gram negative bacteria and gram positive bacteria, as well as nephrotic syndrome and hepatic diseases.

Causes in Alphabetical Order
Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis is a bacterial infection caused by a wide variety of microbes. It is caused usually by a single organism orpolymicrobial. The most common organisms are
- Aerobic gram negative bacteria - E.coli [1]
- Aerobic gram positive bacteria - Streptococci (viridan's group is more common[2]
