ABSTRACT
Peritonitis as a result of spontaneous rupture of the uterus due to pyometra is a very rare entity. Since 1980, only a few cases of spontaneous rupture of the uterus due to pyometra have been reported in the literature. It is a diagnostic dilemma for a surgeon and a possibility of this entity though very rare should be borne in mind in an elderly female patient with diffuse peritonitis as outcome improves greatly on timely diagnosis and proper management. We present a case of peritonitis due to spontaneous rupture of the uterus due to pyometra which was diagnosed at laparotomy and managed successfully.
