Sammanfattning
Group G streptococci (GGS) are beta-haemolytic, and can be found as commensal on skin and mucous membranes. Several articles describe an increased incidence of invasive GGS infections, in majority among older men with co-morbidities. We describe a rare case of invasive post-partum infection, most likely nosocomial transmission since the infected patient shared bath and toilet facilities with the index patient for one day during admission. Subtype stG643 was found in both cases.
