Abstract
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.
