Abstract		Background. The intrauterine device is an affective method of birth control. However pelvic inflammatory disease has been associated with the use of intrauterine devices even since they were introduced. In review author discuss epidemiology and the role of current intrauterine device use in the pathogenesis of pelvic inflammatory disease. Dufferent intrauterine devices and their lifespan were alleged. Long term use and replacement has been taken in concern. Conclusions. Pelvic inflammatory disease among intrauterine device users is related to insertion process and to background risk of sexually transmitted disease. Intrauterine device use in nulliparous is not recommended. Careful screening before reinsertion and counselling is of outmost importance.
Summary		Izhodišča. Maternični vložek je učinkovito kontracepcijsko sredstvo. Že od prvih začetkov njegove uporabe pa povezujejo z njim vnetja rodil. V prispevku avtorica razparvlja o epidemiologiji in patogenezi vnetja rodil pri uporabnicah materničnega vložka. Navaja različne tipe materničnih vložkov in njihovo življenjsko dobo. Obravnava dolgo uporabo materničnega vložka in menjave. Zaključki. Vnetje rodil pri uporabnicah materničnega vložka je povezano z vlaganjem materničnega vložka in tveganjem za spolno prenosljive bolezni. Ženam, ki še niso rodile, maternični vložek odsvetujemo. Pred vložitvijo materničnega vložka je najpomembnejša skrbna izbira in obveščenost žensk.
