The study aimed to predict an etiologic pathology leading to some disease spread in females. Pelvic congestion syndrome (PCS) in females is a condition that is difficult to diagnose; a specific diagnosis for the condition is often difficult, no diagnosis is made in 60% of patients. Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) is a common and disabling condition affecting women of childbearing age; PCS is a recogn...

Pelvic tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) (95%) or Mycobacterium bovis (5%). The incidence of pelvic tuberculosis is difficult to assess as many patients are asymptomatic for 10 to 20 years, therefore the disease often comes to light only incidentally during the course of investigation for a gynecological complaint (such as problems co...

Sarcoidosis is a granulomatous inflammatory disorder of unclear etiology, which is known to affect multiple organ systems including the lungs, heart, skin, central nervous system, and eyes, among others. For this reason, sarcoidosis represents a systemic medical disorder that is clinically relevant to multiple medical sub-specialties. Despite extensive research, the etiology of sarcoidosis has ...

In previous studies which emphasised the role of the urban community hospital in gonorrhoea surveillance, the effectiveness of the communitywide screening programme in reducing serious complications of the disease in women has been stressed (Rendtorff et al., 1976, 1977). While the rate of gonorrhoea has remained essentially at the same level during the past four years, the incidence of pelvic ...

OBJECTIVE This study was undertaken in order to determine if antibiotic prophylaxis is mandatory, after the insertion of levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system in order to decrease the risk of pelvic inflammatory disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS We prospectively evaluated 44 patients, admitted in the Bucharest Emergency Hospital between the 1ⁱ of February 2012 and the 1ⁱ of October 2012, ...

There has been a change in the causative organisms of pelvic inflammatory disease over recent years - Chlamydia trachomatis is now the commonest infecting organism. Pelvic inflammatory disease is often managed in general practice and it is important that each episode is treated adequately in order to prevent recurrent infection, with its short term morbidity and long term risk of infertility an...
