Traditionally, the term "pelvic inflammatory disease" (PID) has been applied to the infectious inflammatory process involving the uterus and/or fallopian tubes. Its broad connotations aggregated various processes of diverging origins. Although it is a convenient categorical term, it does little for the conceptualization of the process within a given patient.
