Listeria monocytogenes affects patients with decreased cell mediated immunity such as the elderly, transplant recipients, cancer patients, renal failure, diabetes, HIV, pregnant women and unborn child, neonate. We experienced a case of listeriosis in twin pregnant woman at 35th weeks without preterm labor. The pregnant woman present sepsis with fever at first time.
