J Paavonen, and M Lehtinen, and K Teisala, and P K Heinonen, and R Punnonen, and R Aine, and A Miettinen, and P Grönroos

We describe two patients with laparoscopically diagnosed, severe acute salpingitis who had nontypable Haemophilus influenzae isolated directly from the fallopian tubes. Nontypable H. influenzae should be recognized as an important genital pathogen.
