Abdominal abscess

Intraabdominal abscess refers to a gap or part of the abdominal cavity that is liquefied due to tissue necrosis and is wrapped by bowel curvature, viscera, abdominal wall, omentum or mesentery, forming a limited accumulation of pus. These include sub-diarrheal abscesses, pelvic abscesses, and intestinal abscesses. Various diseases that cause secondary peritonitis can cause this disease after abdominal surgery and trauma.
