Article Synopsis
- Puerperal endometritis is a common cause of puerperal fever, affecting over half of the patients studied (52.7%).
- A significant portion of these patients (41.2%) required curettage, with bacterial infections being identified in about half of the sampled cultures.
- Factors like abdominal pain, malodorous lochia, fever within the first two weeks postpartum, and ultrasound indications of retained products of conception were linked to the need for curettage.
