| dc.description.abstract | Morganella morganii belongs to the tribe Proteeae of the Enterobacteriaceae family. This species is considered as an unusual op- portunistic pathogen that mainly causes post-operative wound and urinary tract infections. In this case we report a 33 year old multigravid woman presented to the emergency with diffuse lower abdominal pain. She was on her postoperative sixth day after an elective cesarean. Physical ex- amination showed signs of acute abdomen and laboratory findings were consistent with infection. An emergency laparatomy revealed intraab- dominal purulent fluis collection and fibrin deposits on organs. Microbiologic culture resulted inM. morganii and appropriate antibiotherapy was applied. The patient was discharged with no further complications. In conclusion, M. morganii is a rare cause of cesarean section related peri- tonitis and our patient may be the first case of M. morganii peritonitis and the first of monobacterial infection with that organism. | |
