title: [Pelvic inflammatory disease-- microbial findings].
abstract: During the period 1997-2001 in the Microbiological laboratory of University Hospital "Maichin don" 20 women with clinical diagnoses of obs. kysta ovarii, 3 with obs. grav. extrauterina, 9 with pyosalpinx, 37 with TOA, 14 women with pelveoperitonitis were examined. The microbial findings of examined aspirates from CD and materials taken by means of surgical intervention have been presented. The importance of the evaluation of direct microscopical preparation (dmp) from the materials examined fir any existing inflammatory process has been clearly defined. In 14 of the cases (19.1%) in the presence of lot of Leuc in dmp the examined purulent collections didn't show evidence of growth of microorganisms. In the age group 16-25 in 4 of the examined 29 women with acute PID there has been found a positive culture of N. gonorrhoeae. The highest percentage as the cause of TOA and pelveoperitonitis has been attributed to association of microorganisms with anaerobic species having the leading part.
