A recent case of postpartum maternal endometritis and neonatal sepsis due to Streptococcus pneumoniae prompted this report and a review of previous citations. Although this rare presentation of pneumococcal infection is potentially fatal to both mother and child, early empiric antibiotic coverage for the most frequent etiologic agents of this syndrome, group B streptococci, was and is adequate for systemic pneumococcal infections.
近期一例因肺炎链球菌导致产后产妇子宫内膜炎及新生儿败血症的病例促使了本报告的撰写以及对既往文献的回顾。尽管肺炎球菌感染的这种罕见表现对母婴均有潜在致命风险，但针对该综合征最常见病原体B族链球菌的早期经验性抗生素覆盖对于全身性肺炎球菌感染过去和现在都是足够的。
