An overview of infectious agents of salpingitis, their biology, and recent advances in methods of detection

摘要: It was only in the decade of 1970s that more extensive research into etiology acute salpingitis (pelvic inflammatory disease) performed. Recently development new laboratory diagnostic methods and detection taxonomic differentiation organisms such as strictly anerobic bacteria chlamydiae microplasms have contributed to an understanding (AS). In this discussion AS pelvic disease (PID) are used synonymously. reviewing infectious agents their biology recent advances attention is directed following: 1) nontuberculous (Neisseria gonorrhea infections mycoplasma hominis Ureaplasma urealyticum Chlamydia trachomatis Chlamydial perihepatitis miscellaneous uncommon etiologic agents); 2) tuberculous salpingitis; 3) obtaining specimens (lower genital tract uterine cavity cul-de-sac fallopian tubes); 4) (tests for tubal isoamylases Neisseria mycobacteria. A common condition on increase many countries exemplified by studies from Lund Sweden. This incidence PID appears be associated with pandemic situation other sexually transmitted diseases has prevailed over last 20 years. Most cases result infection ascending cervix a large percentage all women who develop colonized known spread sexual intercourse.
