Intra Abdominal Abscesses
Prognosis for Intra Abdominal Abscesses
Complicated intra-abdominal abscesses (those extending beyond a single organ into the peritoneal space) have a mortality rate of 10 to 40%. Outcome depends mainly on the presence of sepsis and on the patient’s primary illness or injury and general medical condition rather than on the specific nature and location of the abscess.
