Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is characterized by infection and inflammation of the upper genital tract in women: the uterus, fallopian tubes and/or ovaries. While a definitive diagnosis of PID can be made by laparoscopic visualization of inflamed, purulent fallopian tubes, PID is generally a clinical diagnosis and thus represents a diagnostic challenge. This condition can cause significant reproductive health sequelae for women; therefore, diagnosis and treatment algorithms advise a high index of suspicion for PID in any reproductive age woman with pelvic or abdominal pain, and err on the side of recommending what likely amounts to overtreatment with antibiotic regimens.
