title: First Trimester Listeria monocytogenes Septicemia.
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Little is known about fetal outcome after Listeria monocytogenes septicemia in the first trimester of pregnancy.
  
  
  METHODS
  A primigravida with L. monocytogenes septicemia at 9 weeks gestation was treated with amoxicillin. At 40 weeks gestation a healthy female infant was born.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  This case shows that fetal outcome can be normal after appropriate treatment of maternal L. monocytogenes septicemia during embryogenesis.
