The aim of this review article is to emphasize the need for a more aggressive approach ti detect and to treat what can be a debilitating condition that if inadequately treated may result in mortality. The large number of options available are discussed under the headings of: conservative management, interventional radiological management and surgical treatment. Lastly, preventive strategies are discussed, as pelvic disease may result in tubal factor infertility, ectopic pregnancies, chronic pelvic pain and tubo-ovarian /pelvic abscesses. Keywords: pelvic inflammatory disease, pelvic abscess, diagnosis and management
