Streptococcus pneumoniae associated with second-trimester chorioamnionitis. A case report.

Streptococcus pneumoniae is found rarely in the normal vaginal flora but appeared to be the cause of chorioamnionitis and premature rupture of the membranes in a 16-week gestation. Both S pneumoniae and Ureaplasma urealyticum were recovered from cervical specimens, but only the Streptococcus grew from samples taken between the placental amnion and chorion.
