Abstract
Chorioamnionitis and Neonatal Sepsis from Community-associated MRSA
Highlights
To the Editor: Chorioamnionitis is a common cause of maternal and neonatal illness and death [1], but chorioamnionitis attributed to Staphylococcus aureus, including methicillinresistant S. aureus (MRSA), is reported infrequently [2,3,4,5]
In the context of the rising incidence of communityassociated MRSA (CA-MRSA) infections [6], we report an apparent case of CA-MRSA chorioamnionitis
Eckhardt et al described a patient with chorioamnionitis in whom CA-MRSA bacteremia developed [9]
