Overview
Pelvic inflammatory disease must be differentiated from ectopic pregnancy, ovarian torsion, ovarian tumor, ruptured ovarian cysts, appendicitis, and urinary tract infection.
Differentiating Pelvic inflammatory disease from other Diseases
| Disease | Findings |
|---|---|
| Ectopic pregnancy | History of missed menses, positive pregnancy test, ultrasound reveals an empty uterus and may show a mass in the fallopian tubes.[1] |
| Appendicitis | Pain localized to the right iliac fossa, vomiting, abdominal ultrasound sensitivity for diagnosis of acute appendicitis is 75% to 90%.[2] |
| Ruptured ovarian cyst | usually spontaneous, can follow history of trauma; mild chronic lower abdominal discomfort may suddenly intensify, ultrasound is diagnostic.[3] |
| Ovarian cyst torsion | Present with acute severe unilateral lower quadrant abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting, tender adnexal mass palpated in 90%, ultrasound is diagnostic.[4] |
- [[]]
- Ectopic pregnancy - a sensitive serum pregnancy test should be obtained to rule out ectopic pregnancy.
- Hemorrhagic ovarian cyst
- Ruptured ovarian cysts
- Myoma
- Ovarian torsion
- Ovarian tumor
- Septic abortion
- Urinary Tract Infection
- Twisted ovarian cyst
- Degeneration of a myoma
- Acute enteritis
- Urinary Tract Infection [5] [6]
Culdocentesis will differentiate hemoperitoneum (ruptured ectopic pregnancy or hemorrhagic cyst) from pelvic sepsis (salpingitis, ruptured pelvic abscess, or ruptured appendix).
