Ätiologie, Pathophysiologie und Diagnose der septischen Peritonitis^[*]

Zusammenfassung

Die septische Peritonitis ist eine Entzündung des Peritoneums, die als Folge einer mikrobiellen Kontamination auftritt. Dieser klinisch bedeutsamen Erkrankung liegt ein sehr umfangreiches Spektrum klinischer Ursachen zugrunde. Sie ist mit einer hohen Morbidität und Mortalität aufgrund eines sekundären Multiorganversagens verbunden. Der vorliegende Artikel stellt Ätiologie, Pathophysiologie und Diagnose dieser Erkrankung beim Kleintier dar. In einem folgenden Beitrag werden Therapie und Prognose beschrieben.

Summary

Septic peritonitis is an inflammatory condition of the peritoneum that occurs secondary to microbial contamination. This clinically important condition has a wide variety of clinical courses as well as high morbidity and mortality due to secondary multiorgan dysfunction. This article reviews the etiology and pathophysiology of this condition and its diagnosis in small animals; a companion article addresses treatment and prognosis.
