  • Title: Streptococcus agalactiae causing pyometra in an elderly female with cervical cancer.
    Author: Gupta R, Das A, Krishna PS.
    Journal: J Infect Dev Ctries; 2012 Dec 15; 6(12):891-4. PubMed ID: 23276744.
    Abstract:
    Streptococcus agalactiae is an important cause of invasive infections in neonates and is emerging as an important pathogen in elderly females. S. agalactiae is a commensal organism of the female genital tract; however, isolation from the uterine cavity suggests ascending infection of this organism caused by occlusion of the uterine cavity. We report a case of S. agalactiae causing pyometra in an elderly female with cervical cancer.
