?:definition
  • Your peritoneum is the tissue that lines your abdominal wall and covers most of the organs in your abdomen. A liquid, peritoneal fluid, lubricates the surface of this tissue.

    Disorders of the peritoneum are not common. They include

    • Peritonitis - an inflammation of the peritoneum
    • Cancer
    • Complications from peritoneal dialysis

    Your doctor may use imaging tests or lab tests to analyze the peritoneal fluid to diagnose the problem. Treatment of peritoneal disorders depends on the cause.
