Abstract

Abstract This article provides a review of peripartum infections, including intra-amniotic infection, postpartum endometritis, and postabortal infections. We present a case of postabortal infection to frame the review. The microbiology, pathogenesis, risk factors, diagnosis, and treatment of peripartum infections are reviewed, and a critical appraisal of the literature and available guidelines is provided. There is a focus on discussing optimal antimicrobial therapy for treating these infections.
