Abstract		Background. Upper genital tract infection (UGTI) is presented as a disease difficult to diagnose as it can develop severe immediate or long-term sequelae, such as infertility, ectopic pregnancy, chronic pain and tubo-ovarian abscess. The disease may appear in the acute form, requiring immediate intervention. Quite often, however, it takes the so-called /silent. course, characterized by mild symptoms which are difficult to recognize. In most cases clinical signs of the infection are not specific, and neither are the majority of laboratory findings. Laparoscopy is a very important investigation in the diagnosis of UGTI. Conclusions. The emphasis is given to the importance of prevention in groups at higher risk for UGTI, such as sexually active teenagers and IUD users. In UGTI, the recognition of early signs of the infection, such as cervicitis and endometritis, and early and appropriate treatment are of major importance.
Summary		Izhodišča. Avtorica v sestavku prikazuje vnetje notranjih rodil (VNR) kot diagnostično zahtevno bolezen z veliko možnostjo resnih takojšnjih ali poznih posledic, kot so neplodnost, zunajmaternična nosečnost, kronične bolečine in tuboovarialni absces. Bolezen lahko poteka akutno in zahteva takojšnje ukrepanje, večkrat pa gre za prikrito obliko vnetja z blagimi, težko razpoznavnimi simptomi. Klinični znaki vnetja so večinoma nespecifični, prav tako večina laboratorijskih preiskav. Pomembna preiskava v diagnostičnem postopku je laparoskopija. Zaključki. Poudarjen je pomen preventive v skupinah z večjim tveganjem za VNR. To so predvsem spolno aktivne najstnice in uporabnice materničnega vložka. Pomembno je prepoznavanje zgodnjih znakov vnetja, kot sta cervicitis in endometritis ter ustrezno zgodnje zdravljenje vnetja rodil.
