Presentation
A singleton pregnancy of longitudinal lie, cephalic presentation and occipito-posterior position was noted. The fetal heart rate was 150 beats/min. [jcgo.org]
Although B. fragilis group is the most common species found in clinical specimens, it is the least common Bacteroides present in fecal flora, comprising only 0.5% of the bacteria present in stool. [americorpshealth.biz]
