👉 Bleeding fluid, often referred to as hemoperitoneum, is a condition where blood leaks from the vessels within the abdominal cavity into the peritoneal cavity, typically due to a ruptured blood vessel or damaged blood vessels. This can occur in various medical conditions, including trauma, certain cancers like hemangioendothelioma or angiosarcoma, and some inflammatory disorders. The blood can accumulate in the peritoneal cavity, leading to symptoms such as abdominal pain, tenderness, and potentially life-threatening complications like infection or organ damage. Diagnosing bleeding fluid usually involves imaging studies and sometimes a peritoneal lavage to identify the source of the blood.
