Pelvic inflammatory disease

The term "pelvic inflammatory disease" (PID) referred to an entire spectrum of inflammatory processes in the upper (above the internal os) part of female reproductive system. PID take the leading position in the structure of gynecological morbidity: 0-65% of outpatients and more than 30% of inpatients. It is difficult to determine the exact rate and prevalence of PID, as well as to diagnose PID because they often are asymptomatic or have diverts clinical manifestations. The issues of treatment and rehabilitation of patients with PID are still relevant, since cases of relapse and chronic inflammatory processes significantly worsen the prognosis for reproductive function, which is an important social and economic problem.
