Abstract

BACKGROUND: (group C or G). This opportunistic bacterium is considered a normal component of vaginal flora and has not been previously identified as a cause of postpartum infections. CASES: . The patient quickly defervesced and was discharged 3 days after admission. CONCLUSION: infection of the female genital tract. This case is important because it demonstrates a pathogen that clinicians should be aware of, particularly given recent reports of increasing virulence.
