Abstract
CS remains an important preventable cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality, with comparable case fatality ratios during 1999 through 2013 (6.5%) and 1992 through 1998 (6.4%). Detection and treatment of syphilis early during pregnancy remain crucial to reducing CS morbidity and mortality.
