A Report of Haemophilus influenzae Bacteremia With Acute Pelvic Inflammatory Disease.

Sexually-transmitted organisms that frequently originate from the flora of the lower genital tract are often implicated in pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). , a pathogen found primarily in the upper respiratory tract, has been rarely associated with PID. Here we report a case of a young woman with PID whose blood cultures grew biotype II, a reminder that the endometrium can be the source of systemic  infection when no typical primary focus is found.
