ABSTRACT

A fatal case of vertical transmission of Mycoplasma pneumoniae manifesting as congenital pneumonia in a neonate is presented. The diagnosis was based on the detection of DNA by polymerase chain reaction on the neonatal nasopharyngeal aspirates and placenta and rising titers of maternal anti Mycoplasma antibodies by complement fixation test.
