title: [Tissue penetration of aztreonam in obstetrics and gynecology].
abstract: The following results were obtained by measuring serum and tissue concentrations of aztreonam, a new monobactam antibiotic. Penetration into each tissue was favorable, particularly, to the portio vaginalis, but there was no conspicuous difference of the penetration among other tissues. Serum concentration tended to decrease with the lapse of time, but the concentration in each tissue did not show a specific pattern of change due to a considerable irregularity of the measured concentrations. No specific side effect was noted.
