Summary

Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) is a serious complication of ascites that can lead to death and can be described as an acute infection of ascites without any certain source of infection SBP is considered the most common infection in cirrhotic patients with ascites. SBP is diagnosed by the presence of ≥250 polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMNL)/mm3 in the ascetic fluid in absence of surgical and treatable causes of intra-abdominal infections .

SBP has many pictures of clinical presentation SBP can be asymptomatic and patients pass unnoticed or can discovered accidentally may have local symptoms and signs of peritonitis such as abdominal pain, and tachypnea or may present with signs of deteriorated liver function in form of gastrointestinal bleeding, shock and renal failure An increasing amount of studies have demonstrated that peripheral blood neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) are indicators of systematic inflammatory response and are widely investigated as useful predictors of the clinical outcomes in various diseases .
