Abstract: Adnexal inflammatory mass refers to adnexal mass caused by pelvic inflammatory disease（PID），which is typically initiated by sexually transmitted agents （such as N. gonorrhoeae and C. trachomatis）. Young and sexually active female is prone to suffering from it. Adnexal inflammatory mass has a serious impact on women’s reproductive health，so prevention is much more important than therapy. The manifestations of pelvic inflammatory disease vary a lot and currently there are no sensitive and specific laboratory tests. The accuracy of vaginal ultrasound in the diagnosis of adnexal inflammatory mass is relatively high，so it is the common tool used in clinical practice.

Key words: pelvic inflammatory disease, adnexal mass, diagnosis
