Peritoneal spillage refers to the leakage of fluid or substances from the peritoneal cavity, often during surgical procedures like laparoscopic surgeries. When this spillage is described as "loculated," it means that the fluid has become trapped in specific, localized areas or pockets within the peritoneal cavity, rather than spreading diffusely. This can lead to complications such as infection or abscess formation if not properly addressed. Managing loculated peritoneal spillage may require additional surgical intervention or drainage.
