Scrub typhus, an acute febrile illness caused by Rickettsia and transmitted by mites, is a re-emerging endemic zoonosis in the Asia Pacific region. It is an uncommon entity and very few cases of this disease in pregnant women have been reported. We present a series of six such cases collected over 1 year with poor feto-maternal outcome in 50%.
恙虫病是一种由立克次体引起、通过螨虫传播的急性发热性疾病，是亚太地区再度出现的地方性人畜共患病。它并不常见，孕妇患此病的病例报道很少。我们呈现了在1年多时间里收集的6例此类病例，其中50%的母婴结局不佳。
