Overview
Microbiology responsible for appendicualr abscess includes a mixture of aerobic and anaerobic organisms that are natural habitat of gut. The most commonly isolated aerobic organism is Escherichia coli, and the most commonly observed anaerobic organism is Bacteroides fragilis. The type and density of aerobic and anaerobic bacteria isolated from appendicular abscesses depends upon the organism that dominate the habitat and degree of obstruction.
Causes of Appendicular abscess
Natural gut flora which includes Gram-negative and anaerobic bacteria play a major role in the development of appendicular abscess.[1]
