AbstractPeptic ulcer perforation is one of the leading causes of acute abdomen, presenting with acute abdominal pain and severe distress for the patient. In one-third of patients, the presentation is less dramatic, resulting in significant delays in diagnosis. Herein, we present a very rarest case operated on for diffuse purulent peritonitis with double perforation of the stomach in a COVID-19-positive patient, which had a depressing outcome.
