Overview
Risk factors of Secondary peritonitis are numerous intraabdominal disorders involving the gastrointestinal or genitourinary tract with spillage of material into the peritoneal space.
Risk Factors
Life Threatening Risk Factors
- Ruptured gastric ulcer, appendicular abscess or diverticular abscess[1]
- Recent surgical procedures
- Recent trauma to the abdomen (e.g. Stab injury or gun shot injury)
Common Risk Factors
Common risk factors for peritonitis include:[2]
- Perforating peptic ulcer disease
- Cholecystitis
- Pancreatitis
- Appendicitis
- Diverticulitis
- Inflamatory bowel diseases such as chron's disease or ulcerative colitis with toxic megacolon
- Pelvic inflamatory disease
