To determine the effect of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection upon pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), a laparoscopic study of acute PID was conducted in Nairobi, Kenya, Subjects underwent diagnostic laparoscopy, HIV-I serology, and testing for sexually transmitted diseases, Of the 133 women with laparoscopically verified salpingitis, 52 (39%) were HIV-l-seropositive. Tube-ovarian abscesses (TOA) were found in 33% of HIV-1-infected and 15% of HIV-1-uninfected women (odds ratio [OR], 2.8; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.2-6.5). Among seropositive women, TOA was found in 55% of those with CD4 cell percent 14% (OR 3.1, 95% CI 0.6-15.3). Neisseria gonorrhoeae was detected in 37 women (28%) and Chlamydia trachomatis in 12 (9%); neither was significantly related to HIV-1 seropositivity, Length of hospitalization was not affected by HIV-1 serostatus overall but was prolonged among HIV-l-infected women with CD4 cell percent
