A case of vaginal listeriosis occurring in the sixth month of pregnancy is reported. It was discovered when the patient suffered from symptoms of appendicitis complicated by jaundice and an acute nephritis. It was investigated by vaginal smears and swabs, and by amniocentesis. Treatment was general and local. The fetus was not attacked, the pregnancy continued, resulting in the delivery and birth of an undamaged infant.
