Abstract: 
A good analysis of intraperitoneal bacteriological results constitutes the basis of therapeutic consideration. The objective of this work is to report the main epidemiological and bacteriological characteristics of community-acquired peritonitis in adults at the Mohammed VI University Hospital of Marrakech.
This is a retrospective descriptive study carried out in the microbiology laboratory of Arrazi hospital at Mohammed VI University Hospital in Marrakech over a period of seven years from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2023 including all community peritonitis documented in our hospital. The cytobacteriological study was carried out according to conventional methods. During the study period (2017-2023), 503 documented peritonitis were collected, The profile of the incriminated germs was dominated by Escherichia coli (48.9%) followed by Streptococci (18.3%), 8% of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and 18.5% for other Enterobacteria.
Our results showed that E coli becomes increasingly resistant to the combination of amoxicillin acid clavulanic which is the antibiotic commonly used in our context, this leads us to review the antibiotics prescribed probabilistically in our context for the management of peritonitis community.
