Laparotomy

Laparotomy is a surgical procedure involving an incision into the abdominal cavity. It is performed to examine the abdominal organs and assist in diagnosing any underlying issues.

Potential complications of laparotomy include infection and the formation of scar tissue within the abdominal cavity. This procedure is commonly undertaken to investigate abdominal pain, although it may be necessary for various other reasons.

The abdominal organs, including the digestive tract (such as the stomach, liver, and intestines) and the organs of excretion (such as the kidneys and bladder), are assessed during laparotomy.

Determinants of risk

Risk factors for peritonitis include:

  1. Peritoneal dialysis: Peritonitis can occur in individuals undergoing peritoneal dialysis therapy.

  2. Other medical conditions: Various medical conditions, such as liver cirrhosis, appendicitis, Crohn’s disease, stomach ulcers, diverticulitis, and pancreatitis, can increase the risk of developing peritonitis.

  3. History of peritonitis: Individuals who have previously experienced peritonitis may have a higher risk of recurrence compared to those who have not had peritonitis before.

Recovery process

Recovery duration varies, contingent on factors like patient characteristics, chosen procedure, and the extent of severity.
