Sepsis caused by anaerobic bacteria

Sepsis caused by anaerobic bacteria is a life-threatening, dysregulated systemic host response to an infection driven by obligate or aerotolerant anaerobic microorganisms, most commonly *Bacteroides fragilis*, *Clostridium* species, *Fusobacterium* species, or anaerobic cocci

It typically arises secondary to disruption of mucosal or cutaneous barriers following abdominal, pelvic, or oral trauma, surgery, or underlying malignancy, frequently originating from deep-seated intra-abdominal or pelvic abscesses and necrotizing soft-tissue processes

Pathophysiologically, the condition is characterized by pathogen-induced endothelial injury, systemic inflammatory cytokine release, microvascular hypoperfusion, and metabolic collapse, which can rapidly progress to septic shock and acute multiorgan failure
