A hundred-and-fourteen women with pyosalpinx, treated in the Varazdin hospital, are presented. The youngest patient was 16 and the oldest 63 years old. According to case history, 28 women denied having been pregnant. Eighty-one women (71%) were treated only with puncture and instillation and 33 (29%) surgically. Among the latter, 12 were surgically treated for peritonitis or under the picture of appendicitis at the Surgical Department. Surgical interventions ranged from unilateral adnexectomy to bilateral adnexectomy with hysterectomy, depending on age, the extent of the process, and other findings (myoma, carcinoma, etc.).
