Puerperal infection with anaerobic streptococci. Schwarz and Dieckmann (Amer. Jour. of obst. a. gyn., v. 13, 1927; Ber. ü. d. g. Gyn., Bd. XII)
In agreement with Schollmüller's views, the authors believe that anaerobic streptococci are of predominant importance in puerperal infection. Of the 17 cases where blood cultures were positive, they were detected in 11. Cultures obtained from the uterine cavity detected 35 times anaerobic and 12 times aerobic streptococci. Of the 10 deaths, 5 were due to anaerobic streptococci and 3 to a mixture of anaerobic streptococci with other microbes.
