Post-Operative Vaginal Cuff Peptostreptococcus Infection
Post-operative vaginal cuff infections represent a serious complication following gynecologic surgeries, particularly total hysterectomy. Among the microbial culprits, Peptostreptococcus—an anaerobic Gram-positive coccus—frequently colonizes the female…
Postoperative Gynecologic Infection Due to Prevotella
Prevotella species, a group of gram-negative anaerobic bacteria, are increasingly implicated in postoperative gynecologic infections. Commonly found as commensals in the oral cavity, gastrointestinal tract,…
Postoperative Gynecologic Infection Due to Porphyromonas
Postoperative gynecologic infections are significant complications following pelvic surgeries, such as hysterectomies, cesarean sections, and laparoscopic procedures. Anaerobic bacteria, including the Porphyromonas genus—particularly Porphyromonas asaccharolytica…
