RESUMO
Leptotrichia amnionii, a recently described fastidious gram-negative anaerobic bacterium, is an opportunistic pathogen of the female urogenital tract. We report a rare case of L. amnionii bacteremia in a patient with postpartum endometritis which was successfully treated by amoxicilline-clavunalate. There is more and more evidence that L. amnonii has its role in Pelvic Inflammatory Disease and postpartum endometritis.
