Streptococcus agalactiae causing pyometra in an elderly female with cervical cancer.

Ruchi Gupta1, Anupam Das, Prakash S Krishna.   

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.
