ABSTRACT

Neonatal omphalitis as a clinical entity can produce important complications, hence its importance, the need for admission and early empirical antibiotic treatment. Our case is interesting given the exceptional nature of the isolation of the pathogen and the significant increase in serious invasive infections that Streptococcus pyogenes has produced this last year in our country, promoting the indication from the Spanish Society of Pediatric Infectology (SEIP) of antibiotic treatment early treatment with beta-lactam associated with clindamycin when invasive disease is suspected, which represents a change in the usual antibiotic therapy for this pathology.
