Emergency General Surgery (EGS) encompasses a broad spectrum of surgical procedures performed urgently to address acute conditions such as trauma, abdominal emergencies, and infections. Despite advancements in surgical techniques and perioperative care, infectious complications remain a significant concern in EGS. These infections not only prolong hospital stays but also escalate healthcare costs and burden patients with additional morbidity and mortality. Thus, a comprehensive understanding of the factors influencing infectious complications and the implementation of evidence-based interventions are imperative to improve outcomes in emergency general surgery. This delves deeper into the nuances of infectious complications in EGS, aiming to provide insights that inform clinical practice and enhance patient care.
