Coming soon*Peptococcus* pelvic cellulitis refers to a deep soft-tissue and connective-tissue bacterial infection within the female pelvis—most frequently involving the parametrium or pelvic retroperitoneal spaces—caused by the anaerobic Gram-positive coccus *Peptococcus*.
Predominantly arising as a complication of gynecologic surgery, pelvic inflammatory disease, or postpartum instrumentation, the organism ascends from the normal endogenous lower genital tract microflora into disrupted deeper tissues.
Pathophysiologically, it manifests as widespread, non-suppurative inflammation or microvascular necrosis of the pelvic fascia, typically presenting clinically with lower abdominal pain, marked pelvic or cervical motion tenderness, systemic fever, and leukocytosis.
