Relationship between pelvic inflammatory disease and Ureaplasma urealyticum infection

Objective To study the infection of Ureaplasma urealyticum(Uu) in patients with pelvic inflammatory disease and other pathogenic microorganism infections in patients with Ureaplasma urealyticum in order to instruct the diagnose and treatment.Methods Two hundred and ten patients with pelvic inflammatory diseases were randomly chosen.Excretion of cervix in patients with pelvic inflammatory disease were collected.Uu were isolated,and concurrent infection were analyzed. Results In these patients,104 were Uu positive ones,and 96 cases(92.31%) were concurrent infections with bacteria and Monilia.The age between 19-29 and 30-39 had the highest rate of concurrent infection,which were 49.04%and 40.38%respectively.Concurrent infection with the most common bacteria was Staphylococcus epidermidis,37(35.58%);secondly was Staphylococcus aureus,24(23.08%);Candida albicans,15(14.42%).Conclusion The occurrence of Uu in patients with pelvic inflammation,especially in young female is higher.The situation of concurrent infections is serious.The patients of pelvic inflammations should be tested for Uu,bacteria and Monilia.It is useful to cure and prevent the disease.
