[Genital carriage of Streptococcus group B in the pregnant woman in Abidjan (Ivory Coast)].

To determine the prevalence of group B streptococci to the pregnant woman in Abidjan, we have proceeded an inquiry to a carrier regrouping 150 women examined during a systematic prenatal consultation. The pregnant women did not present any clinical symptoms which can evoke a genital infection. The sampling to the research of group B streptococci have been made to the level of vulva, vagina and cervix. The global frequency of isolation to the pregnant woman is of 19.33% with a frequency of 9.33% to the level of the cervix and the vagina and of 11.33% to the level of the vulva.
