Abstract
To correlate Chlamydia trachomatis IgG titers with endosalpingiosis. Prospective, single-blind, histologic analysis of tissue, and retrospective analysis of historical laboratory and clinical variables. A tertiary care patient practice. Sixty consecutive patients with C. trachomatis IgG titers, 28 positive and 32 negative. The second review of histology slides and charts of these women. One patient was found to have endosalpingiosis. She had Fitz-Hugh-Curtis (FHC) adhesions and a positive C. trachomatis IgG titer, but no endometriosis. This review confirmed an anecdotal association of endosalpingiosis with positive C. trachomatis IgG titers and FHC adhesions, but failed to demonstrate a statistically significant relationship due to the size of the sample.
