Generalized Peritonitis Following A Double Uterine and Ileal Perforation after Clandestine Abortion

摘要

In many underdeveloped countries, illegal abortion can result in maternal death due to infectious complications such as pelviperitonitis, generalized peritonitis, and even septic shock. We report the observation of a 36-year-old patient who presented with peritonitis four days after an illegal abortion. The exploration was in favor of a double uterine and ileal perforation leading to a generalized peritonitis.
