Sixty patients with oligomenorrhea and the painful syndrome were examined to study the course of a chronic inflammatory process of the genitals. Laparoscopy has confirmed the initial diagnosis of salpingo-oophoritis in 24 of the 60 examinees. The authors call for a more thorough examination of this patient population, for an erroneous diagnosis of a chronic inflammation leads to erroneous therapeutic strategy, consisting in irrational administration of antibacterial, balneo- and physiotherapy.
