  Abstract: Sequelae of Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (SPID) is a common gynecological disorder in women. If not treated in a timely manner, acute pelvic inflammatory disease will progress to SPID, which seriously endangers patients physical and mental health. Modern medical research suggests that the pathological basis of SPID is complex and its pathogenesis remains unclear, resulting from the combined effects of multiple factors such as post-acute infection tissue damage, abnormal tissue repair, and immune regulation imbalance. For this sequela, the mainstream Western medical treatment strategies mainly include antibiotic therapy and surgical intervention. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) advocates the synergistic application of internal and external therapies, namely syndrome differentiation-based oral medication as the internal approach, combined with external modalities including acupuncture, Chinese herbal enema and moxibustion. This paper systematically summarizes the main methods, mechanisms of action and clinical research progress of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine in the treatment of SPID in recent years at home and abroad. It provides a reference for clinical medical staff to formulate individualized diagnosis and treatment plans, and also offers a theoretical basis for subsequent basic and clinical research on SPID.
