Intraabdominal infections

Intraabdominal infections are the second most common cause of sepsis in intensive care units. Intraabdominal infections represent a wide variety of pathological conditions that involve lesions of all the intraabdominal organs. They also include intraperitoneal, retroperitoneal and parenchymal abscesses. The etiology of these infections usually includes organisms derived from the gut microbiota. The increasing rate of bacterial resistance is alarming. The treatment of intraabdominal infections is complex and involves source control and antibiotics. The choice of an antibiotic plays a key role and reflects the source of infection and its etiology.
