Title: Group B streptococcal disease in pregnancy. Author: Berrios Peñalver R. Journal: Bol Asoc Med P R; 1995; 87(1-2):21-5. PubMed ID: 7786356. Abstract: Group B Streptococcal (GBS) infection in the pregnant female represents a challenging and often complex scenario which may cause deleterious effects in the neonate.
