Objective To explore the risk factors, pathophysiological mechanism, pathogenic bacteria distribution, diagnosis, and treatment of postoperative intra-abdominal infection, and to provide a theoretical basis for further understanding the mechanism and treatment of postoperative intra-abdominal infection.Method The related literatures in PubMed, CNKI, WanFang, and other databases were searched to summarize the research progress of postoperative intra-abdominal infection.Results Postoperative intra-abdominal infection was associated with a variety of risk factors, and timely identification and control were conducive to the prevention of intra-abdominal infection. Postoperative intra-abdominal infection had a complex pathophysiological mechanism, mainly involving changes in the immune system, which provided a target for immunotherapy. Pathogenic bacteria were widely distributed in postoperative intra-abdominal infection, and the problem of drug resistance was also a big problem nowadays. In the treatment of postoperative intra-abdominal infection, comprehensive treatment measures should be taken to control the infection, in which the control of the source of infection was the basis and played a key role.Conclusions The treatment of postoperative intra-abdominal infection needs to be more individualized and refined, and comprehensive treatment measures such as controlling the source of infection, nutrition therapy, organ function support, and so on, should be taken. Immunotherapy is a new potential treatment measure.
