AbstractAbdominal compartment syndrome is defined as a pathological elevation of intraabdominal pressure associated with significant organ dysfunction and failure. Organ dysfunction mainly affects the renal, pulmonary, cardiac, gastrointestinal, and central nervous system. A high level of suspicion for this condition and early identification of patients at risk are mandatory for the successful management of abdominal compartment syndrome, which includes conservative and operative strategies.
