Introduction:
Septic peritonitis is an inflammatory condition of the peritoneum that occurs secondary to microbial contamination. Septic peritonitis may have a wide variety of clinical courses and outcomes, with high morbidity and mortality. The definitive diagnosis usually relies on the identification of toxic and/or degenerate neutrophils with foreign debris and/or intracellular bacteria in the peritoneal fluid. A thorough understanding of the treatment options and prognosis is crucial to decision making and comprehensive care.
