Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
The incidence of metronidazole-resistant trichomoniasis is approximately 5%. Resistance during pregnancy has not been reported. Untreated trichomoniasis in pregnancy can cause preterm labor, premature rupture of membranes, and low birth weight. We report a case of metronidazole-resistant trichomoniasis in pregnancy, successfully treated with a high dose of tinidazole. |
