BACKGROUND: Abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) refers to organ dysfunction and ischemia resulting from intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH). Ischemia of the gut results in the triggering of a systemic inflammatory response by releasing cytokines which, in turn, causes capillary leakage leading to bowel edema, further increasing intra-abdominal pressure and resulting in a morbid cycle of ischemia and edema.
