Abstract
An attack of leptospirosis due to serotype canicola in a pregnant woman was followed in the convalescent period by death of the foetus. Previous cases of this nature are reviewed. In certain areas where leptospirosis is known to exist among the animal population early recognition and treatment of human cases is advised, especially when they occur during pregnancy.Keywords
