Isi artikel

Pelvic inflammatory disease is an infection-induced inflammation of the female upper reproductive tract (the endometrium, fallopian tubes, ovaries, or pelvic peritoneum); it has a wide range of clinical manifestations.1 Inflammation spreads from the vagina or cervix to the upper genital tract, with endometritis as an intermediate stage in the pathogenesis of disease.2 The hallmark of the diagnosis is pelvic tenderness combined with inflammation of the lower genital tract; women with pelvic inflammatory disease often have very subtle symptoms and signs.3 Many women have clinically silent spread of infection to the upper genital tract, which results in subclinical pelvic inflammatory disease.1,4
