Early detection and prompt treatment of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) in women are essential. Currently, antibiotic therapy is the primary treatment modality in clinical practice; surgical intervention may be required when necessary. Antibiotic treatment helps eradicate pathogens, alleviate symptoms and physical signs, and reduce the risk of complications; the vast majority of PID cases can be cured. However, surgery should be promptly considered in cases with unclear etiology, pelvic abscess formation, failure of medical therapy, or persistent abscess despite antibiotic treatment.
