Severe endometritis caused by genital mycoplasmas after Caesarean section.
Infrequently, post-Caesarean endometritis can progress to severe conditions. A case of post-Caesarean endometritis caused by Mycoplasma hominis and Ureaplasma urealyticum is reported in a young patient. In therapy-resistant endometritis unusual causative organisms should be considered and special microbiological investigations are recommended.
