Pasteurella multocida: First case report of uterine abscess and septic metastasis.

Human pasteurellosis with a gynecologic tropism is rare. A 54 year-old woman presented with sepsis due to a uterine abscess from pasteurella multocida (PM) secondarily complicated by gluteal abscess. She had a history of adenomyosis and had previously undergone hysteroscopic sterilization with micro-inserts. Treatment consisted in antibiotherapy, laparoscopic hysterectomy with salpingectomy and abscess drainage, which resulted in complete recovery. This is the first case of uterine abscess from PM with a second septic location.
