Abstract
Sixty-two patients who had postpartum endometritis were treated with clindamycin in combination with either aztreonam or the aminoglycoside gentamicin. Currently, the combination of clindamycin and an aminoglycoside constitutes a treatment of choice for this condition. Our results suggest that aztreonam can be substituted for an aminoglycoside in the treatment of postpartum endometritis with similar clinical outcomes.
