Overview

Imaging studies such as X-ray or ultrasound require to diagnose perforated Secondary peritonitis, if the patient has met two of the chemical criteria (ascitic fluid protein >l g/dl, glucose ~50 mg/dl, and lactate dehydrogenase greater than the upper limit of normal for serum] are fulfilled in the setting of neutrocytic ascites.[1]
