We report on a case of extensive intraabdominal calcifications resulting from previous bacterial peritonitis. The patient suffered from an obstructive ileus. ⋯ To avoid recurrence, radiotherapy (15 Gy) and indomethacin were given. A literature review revealed only two cases of intraabdominal calcifications following peritonitis.
