Objective: To study the pathogenesis of pathogens of sexually transmitted disease (STD) in acute pelvic inflammatory disease (PID).
Methods: Neisseria gonorrhoeae, chlamydia trchomatis, ureaplasma urealyticum were cutured respectively in 130 patients with acute PID.
Results: The pathogens of STD had been found in 55 patients. The detective rate of Neisseria gonorrhoeae was 6.9% (9/130), about half of them were mixed infection; the detective rate of chlamydia trachomatis was 4.6% (6/130), all of them were mixed infection; the positive percentage of ureaplasma urealyticum was 37.7% (49/130), one third of them were mixed infection.
Conclusion: The pathogens of STD might cause acute PID or only play a synergetic role in it.
