A 27-year-old woman died from pneumococcal meningitis associated with pneumococcal endometritis two days after being delivered of a .1.75-kg infant. The infant also had pneumococcal septicemia and died six days after birth. The pneumococcus isolated from the mother and the baby was type 8. The membranes had ruptured 21 hours before delivery, and the mother had received a salbutamol infusion in an attempt to inhibit labor with injections of betamethasone to prevent neonatal respiratory distress. This case typified the dramatic onset and lethal nature of some pneumococcal infections.
一名27岁女性在产下一名1.75千克重的婴儿两天后，死于与肺炎球菌性子宫内膜炎相关的肺炎球菌性脑膜炎。该婴儿也患有肺炎球菌败血症，出生六天后死亡。从母亲和婴儿身上分离出的肺炎球菌为8型。胎膜在分娩前21小时破裂，母亲接受了沙丁胺醇静脉输注，试图抑制宫缩，并注射了倍他米松以预防新生儿呼吸窘迫。这个病例体现了一些肺炎球菌感染的急剧发病和致命性质。
