Background: Escherichia coli in the vagina includes several virulence factors in its genome mobile genetic elements and can facilitate colonization, mainly in immunosuppressed patients. Objectives: This work aimed to demonstrate that E. coli strains of vaginal origin isolated from dysplastic patient...
