Abstract
Two patients with severe chlamydial sepsis in pregnancy are described and compared with previously published case reports. The infections appear to have been zoonotic, the patients acquiring their infections as a result of exposure to enzootic abortion of ewes. This is an important but poorly recognised human infection which because of its severity in pregnancy deserves consideration in patients with an appropriate occupational history.Entities:
