About Prevotella septic abortion.

*Prevotella* septic abortion is a serious, potentially life-threatening upper genital tract infection occurring before, during, or following a spontaneous or induced pregnancy termination, involving obligate anaerobic Gram-negative bacilli of the *Prevotella* genus (such as *Prevotella bivia*).

Pathophysiologically, the condition arises when endogenous vaginal and cervicovaginal anaerobes ascend into the uterine cavity, colonizing retained products of conception, invading the endometrium and myometrium, and frequently driving polymicrobial pelvic sepsis.

Clinically, affected patients present with fever, lower abdominal and pelvic pain, uterine tenderness, purulent or foul-smelling vaginal discharge, and abnormal uterine bleeding, with risks of rapid escalation to myometritis, bacteremia, pelvic abscess, and septic shock.
