Summary

Objective: Description of the case history of a brain abscess as a rare complication of pelvic inflammatory disease. Case report: We discuss a woman of reproductive age who had inserted a non-hormonal intrauterine device for seven years and developed pelvic inflammatory disease with no response to antibio­tic therapy. After surgery, some neurological symptoms led to a dia­gnosis of a brain abscess. Conclusion: Brain abscess is a rare but potentially lethal complication from pelvic inflammatory disease, needing prompt dia­gnosis and interdisciplinary cooperation.

Keywords:
