|September 1, 1979
Abstract:
A 27-year-old patient who became pregnant whilst fitted with an intrauterine contraceptive device developed an intrauterine Candida albicans infection and aborted. The diagnostic (and other inconspicuous) features of C. Albicans infection in the fetus are described. The presence of the intrauterine contraceptive device may have predisposed to the establishment of the infection.
