DGI has varied manifestations in different population group. We report a case of a 30-year-old sexually active woman presenting with hemorrhagic symptoms 2 weeks after a surgery on account of diagnosis of uterine fibroid made at a peripheral hospital. A multidrug-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae was isolated from the wound on her surgical site and blood sample. She was managed with intravenous meropenem, pressure dressing, and blood products, with the patient making a full recovery after a week. This case is presented because it is a rare one. Moreover, there is the need to revive the awareness of clinicians on the existence of multidrug-resistant gonococcus in our environment. We herein report a case of DGI from Nigeria.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0042-1758806","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,20]],"date-time":"2022-12-20T01:19:00Z","timestamp":1671499140000},"page":"462-465","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Disseminated
