Journal Title: Journal of Medical Biomedical and Applied Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 6
Abstract
Streptococcus pneumoniae endometritis is an exceedingly rare clinical occurrence in the immuno competent individual. This case report describes such an occurrence in an otherwise healthy woman 39 days post-normal vaginal delivery. The patient responded to prompt broad-spectrum intravenous antibiotics and made a full recovery. The clinical relevance of such a scenario, the likely pathogenesis of the event as well as a brief review of relevant clinical literature are discussed.
