Obstetric tetanus is defined as a infection that occurs during pregnancy or within six weeks of delivery. In Peru, there are no reports of obstetric tetanus cases. Here we report a sixth case of obstetric tetanus in a puerperal woman who underwent curettage for postpartum hemorrhage, despite immunization against tetanus.
产褥期破伤风被定义为在怀孕期间或分娩后六周内发生的感染。在秘鲁，尚无产褥期破伤风病例的报告。在此，我们报告了第六例产褥期破伤风病例，该病例发生在一名因产后出血接受刮宫术的产妇身上，尽管她已接种破伤风疫苗。
