Overview
Secondary peritonitis has numerous causes. Nonbacterial causes of peritonitis include leakage of blood into the peritoneal cavity due to rupture of a tubal pregnancy, ovarian cyst, or aneurysmal vessel.
Causes
Life-Threatening Causes
Common causes
Common causes of secondary peritonitis include:[1][2]
- Perforated PUD
- Appendicitis
- Diverticulitis
- Acute cholecystitis
- Pancreatitis
- Post-surgical complications
Causes by Source
Infected Secondary Peritonitis | Non-infected Secondary Peritonitis | |||
---|---|---|---|---|
Perforation of a hollow viscus organ | Disruption of the peritoneum | Leakage of sterile body fluids into the peritoneum | Sterile abdominal surgery | Rarer non-infectious causes |
Perforation of a hollow viscus (most common cause of peritonitis)
Other possible causes for perforation
Most common organisms -mixed bacteria |
Most common organisms |
Sterile body fluids such as
These body fluids are sterile at first, they frequently become infected once they leak out of their organ, leading to infectious peritonitis within 24-48h. |
Due to sterile foreign body inadvertently left in the abdomen after surgery (e.g. gauze, sponge) |
