Intra-Abdominal Infection: Understanding, Causes, and Management
Intra-abdominal infections (IAIs) are serious medical conditions that occur within the abdominal cavity and can affect various organs such as the stomach, intestines, liver, pancreas, and appendix. These infections are a common cause of hospitalization and carry significant morbidity and mortality if not promptly diagnosed and treated. Understanding the causes, risk factors, and treatment strategies is essential for healthcare providers and patients alike.
Causes and Types of Intra-Abdominal Infections

Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis, commonly seen in patients with liver cirrhosis, is a primary IAI.
