Dysgonomonas capnocytophagoides shows multidrug resistance to antibiotics and causes opportunistic infections in immunocompromised hosts. We report a fatal case of peritonitis caused by D. capnocytophagoides in Japan. We identified a novel chromosomally encoded class B1 metallo-beta-lactamase gene designated blaDYB-1 and an ermFS gene that contributed to multidrug resistance.
