About E. coli pelvic cellulitis.

E.

coli pelvic cellulitis is a bacterial infection of the female reproductive tract characterized by acute inflammation of the pelvic retroperitoneal connective tissues, parametrium, or vaginal cuff due to susceptible isolates of the gram-negative bacillus *Escherichia coli*.

Most frequently developing as an operative site infection following gynecologic or obstetric procedures, such as hysterectomy or cesarean delivery, it can also arise from ascending genital tract infections or local spread from adjacent pelvic viscera.

The condition pathologically involves diffuse tissue induration, erythema, and edema driven by bacterial invasion, which typically presents with fever, leukocytosis, and localized lower abdominal or pelvic tenderness, carrying a risk of progression to pelvic abscess formation or bacteremia if inadequately controlled.
