How many woman have died from c sordellii following childbirth? should i be worried? can this be prevented?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Clostridium Sordelli: A 2006 review article reported 8 of 23 reported cases of C. Sordelli occurring during normal childbirth. 100% of these cases were fatal. This is a rare infection and does not deserve undue anxiety or worry and you need to realize that please. Early detection, and therefore prevention, are difficult because many women may carry C. sordelli in their vagina as part of their normal flora. Be well.
