Disease

Ascending infection from
the lower genital tract

Potential for multiple and
long-term complications

Spreads to reproductive
organs, causing:

Etiology: Untreated STDs
causing cervicitis

Endometritis

Salpingitis

Oophoritis

Pelvic peritonitis

Perihepatitis


Chlamydia trachomatis
Neisseria gonorrhea
PID: Epidemiology



Cases in US decreased from 189,662 in 2002 to 168,837 in 2003
Hospitalizations steadily declined from around 70,000
cases/year in 1998 to 45,000 cases/year in 2007
Clinic visit have dropped due to aggressive public health
chlamydia screening and treatment programs
PID: Risk factors

Untreated STDs

Multiple partners
(increases
overall risk of STDs)
Unfaithful partner

Young sexually active

History of PID

Sex during menses

Douche

Intrauterine Devices

Bacterial Vaginosis

Cervicitis


Inflammation/infection of the cervix
Most common infectious causes are chlamydia and
gonorrhea


Other causes include both HSV and Trichomoniasis
Usually associated with vaginitis
Cervicitis


Symptoms/Exam:
 Vaginal discharge
 Red, inflamed and congested cervix
 Strawberry cervix if Trichomoniasis
is the cause
Differential:
 Noninfectious cervicitis
 Early neoplastic process
Cervicitis


Diagnosis:
 Physical exam and wet mount can aid in
identification of cause
Treatment:
 Unless specific etiology is identified, treatment for
both G&C is recommended



Ceftriaxone (125-250mg IM) and
Doxycycline (100 bid x 7) or
Azithromycin (1g x 1)
PID: Symptoms

Lower abdominal/pelvic pain

Vaginal complaints:




Abnormal discharge
Bleeding
Post coital bleeding
Dyspareunia

Fever, malaise, nausea & vomiting

Symptom onset 2-5 days after menstruation
PID: Exam

Lower abdominal tenderness

Mucopurulent cervicitis


Cervical motion tenderness
 Severe cervical tenderness = Chandelier sign
Bilateral adnexal tenderness
 Unilateral adnexal tenderness or unilateral mass
suggests Tuboovarian abscess (TOA)

Use transvaginal U/S to rule out TOA in pts with PID
and unilateral tenderness
PID: Diagnosis

Major Criteria

Lower abdominal pain/tenderness


Cervical Motion Tenderness


PLUS
OR
Uterine/Adnexal Tenderness
PID: Diagnosis

Additional Criteria (increases specificity)





Fever > 38.3 C or > 101 F
Abnormal cervical/vaginal mucopurulent
discharge
(+) cultures for Gonorrhea or Chlamydia
WBC > 10,000
Elevated CRP or ESR
PID: Definitive Diagnosis



Histologic evidence of endometritis
Imaging revealing:
 Thickened fluid-filled tubes/oviducts
 With/without free pelvic fluid or tuboovarian complex
Consistent laparoscopic abnormalities:
 tubal erythema
 edema
 adhesions
 purulent exudate or cul-de-sac fluid
 abnormal fimbriae
PID: Differential Diagnosis


Gastrointestinal:
 Appendicitis
 Obstetric/Gynecologic
 Cholecystitis
:
 Constipation
 Dysmenorrhea
 Gastroenteritis
 ectopic pregnancy
 Inflammatory bowel
 intrauterine
disease
pregnancy
complication
Renal:
 ovarian cyst
 Cystitis
 ovarian torsion
 pyelonephritis
 ovarian tumor
 nephrolithiasis

urethritis
PID: Treatment

Prompt Abx coverage for both
G&C

Outpatient:



Rocepin 250 IM +
Doxy 100 bid x 14
Inpatient:

Cefotetan or
Cefoxitin + Doxy or



PID: Treatment

Hospitalization if:






Pregnant
Immunosuppression
Documented/suspected
pelvic abscess
IUD
Severe vomiting
Failed outpatient management

Treatment of sexual partners is needed

Refer all for HIV & syphilis testing
PID: Laparoscopy
Indications

Acutely ill with high concern of competing diagnosis

Acutely ill and failed outpatient treatment

Not clearly improving after 72 hours of inpatient
treatment





Inflammation of the liver capsule
Up to ¼ of patients
Symptoms:
 Sharp, pleuritic RUQ pain
 Signs of salpingitis
Mimics


Cholecystitis
pyelonephritis
PID: Complications

Pregnancy difficulties



Infertility
 1 and 8 women with previous PID will have
difficulty getting pregnant
 2x increase if recurrent PID
Ectopic pregnancy
Most preventable cause of
infertility and unfavorable
pregnancy outcome
PID: Complications

Chronic Pain
 At least six months' duration
 Occurs below the umbilicus
 Severe enough to cause functional
disability



1/3 of women with PID
Caused by scarring/adhesions from
inflammation related to infectious process
4x increase risk with recurrent PID
PID: Complications

Recurrent PID


Hydrosalpinx




adolescents were 50% more likely than adults
Damaged fallopian tube becomes blocked, filled
with sterile fluid, and enlarges
Causes pain or may be asymptomatic
Causes infertility
Ovarian Cancer

Some studies show 2x increase risk
PID: Prevent Recurrence



Condoms
Progestins
 thickens cervical mucus
= barrier to ascending infection
Oral contraceptive pills
