Abstract
A 32-year-old Nigerian woman, who became pregnant after undergoing in vitro fertilization, was admitted with nausea and abdominal pain. She had a history of two miscarriages and infertility because of tubal blockage treated by salpingectomy. One week prior, she presented to an outside hospital with premature rupture of membranes resulting in stillborn delivery of twins. Endometrial cultures from dilatation and curettage grew Escherichia coli, and she was started on a fluoroquinolone for chorioamnionitis.
