Six cases with diseases caused Group B streptococcus (GBS) received hospital care during the period from 2000 to 2004 at Tokyo Women's Medical University Medical Center East. Few cases of disease caused GBS type V were reported in Japan, two of six cases were disease due to type V. Two cases had early-onset disease. Their serotypes were Ia and V. Late-onset diseases were meningitis with subdural empyema due to type III, meningitis due to type V, occult bacteremia due to type III and sepsis of unknown type. No difference were seen between disease due to GBS type V and disease due to other serotypes. We evaluated for GBS colonization rates in pregnant women and distribution of serotypes between June, 2003 and March, 2006. Colonization was detected 15.4% of 1,454 pregnant women. The distribution of serotypes was 12.9% for type Ia, 9.4% for type Ib, 7.1% for type II, 11.2% for type III, 0.6% for type IV, 11.8% for type V, 20.0% for type VI, 8.2% for type VIII and 18.8% for nontypable. We are concerned that disease due to GBS type V will increase because the number of type V isolated from pregnant women is increasing.
