Tuberculous (TB) meningitis is common in resource-poor communities but also occurs in developed countries where the diagnosis is frequently delayed because of unfamiliarity with the disease. TB meningitis develops whenever a small intracranial tuberculoma (Rich focus) ruptures causing predominantly basal meningitis.

Meningitis (II) – acute bacterial meningitis
Therapeutische Umschau, 1999Die akute bakterielle Meningitis ist ein medizinischer Notfall, insbesondere bei Patienten mit rasch progredientem Krankheitsbild und Bewußtseinstrübung. Die Liquoruntersuchung zeigt bei der bakteriellen Meningitis eine entzündliche Reaktion mit vorwiegend polymorphonukleären Zellen.

Candidal Meningitis Following Bacterial Meningitis
Southern Medical Journal, 1990Patients with bacterial meningitis and posttraumatic and/or postsurgical access to the CSF are at risk for superinfection with Candida species. Patients who are not improving on appropriate antimicrobial chemotherapy for bacterial meningitis or are deteriorating after initial improvement should have a CSF reexamination for Candida superinfection.

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 1999
Initial empiric therapy for community-acquired bacterial meningitis should be based on the possibility that penicillin-resistant pneumococci may be the etiologic organisms and, hence, should include a combination of third-generation cephalosporin (cefotaxime or ceftriaxone) and vancomycin.

Pediatrics, 1969
The first reported case of cephalosporium meningitis in a newborn infant is presented. The diagnosis was suspected by the morphological features of the yeast-like organisms on direct smears in two separate cerebrospinal fluid specimens and confirmed by two cerebrospinal fluid cultures. The outcome was entirely satisfactory.

A 48-year-old man presented with a 2 day history of fever, headache, chills, neck stiff ness, and nausea and vomiting. He had a history of two episodes of viral meningitis, which occurred 30 and 13 years before this presentation. An examination confi rmed meningism without focal neurological defi cits.

Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2005
Chronic meningitis is a syndrome commonly defined by the presence of continuously persistent meningeal inflammation for at least 4 weeks. Presenting neurologic features are often nonspecific, and the list of differential diagnoses is broad. Despite the development of modern molecular diagnostic methods, establishing a specific cause may challenge the ...
