Definitions. Intra-abdominal infection (IAI) describes a diverse set of diseases. It is broadly defined as peritoneal inflammation in response to microorganisms, resulting in purulence in the peritoneal cavity[1]. IAI are classified as uncomplicated or complicated based on the extent of infection[2].
Abscesses in the lesser sac of the peritoneal cavity may develop secondary to severe pancreatitis or perforating ulcers of the stomach or duodenum. Intraperitoneal abscesses are collections of pus that are walled-off by the omentum, inflammatory adhesions, or contiguous viscera.
Under the definition of CPT 10060-10061, you'll make an incision in the abscess and allow its contents to drain.
There are nine layers to the abdominal wall: skin, subcutaneous tissue, superficial fascia, external oblique muscle, internal oblique muscle, transversus abdominis muscle, transversalis fascia, preperitoneal adipose and areolar tissue, and peritoneum.
Difference between cyst and abscess. While a cyst is a sac enclosed by distinct abnormal cells, an abscess is a pus-filled infection in your body caused by, for example, bacteria or fungi. The main difference in symptoms is: a cyst grows slowly and isn't usually painful, unless it becomes enlarged.
Most abscesses are caused by an infection with staphylococcal bacteria. When bacteria enter the body, the immune system sends white blood cells to fight the infection. This causes swelling (inflammation) at the site of infection and the death of nearby tissue.
An untreated abdominal abscess can be life threatening. In some cases it may grow, causing damage to nearby organs and blood vessels. Bacteria can also enter the bloodstream, spreading to other organs and tissues. This spread can be fatal.
Specific symptoms of abdominal abscesses depend on the location of the abscess, but most people have constant discomfort or pain, feel generally sick (malaise), and often have a fever. Other symptoms include nausea, loss of appetite, and weight loss.
Most abscesses are caused by a bacterial infection. When bacteria enter your body, your immune system sends infection-fighting white blood cells to the affected area. As the white blood cells attack the bacteria, some nearby tissue dies, creating a hole which then fills with pus to form an abscess.
Accumulation of purulent exudates beneath the diaphragm, also known as upper abdominal abscess. It is usually associated with peritonitis or postoperative infections.
