Bacterial meningitis is a severe disease which affects 35.000 Europeans each year and has a mortality rate of about 20%. During the past 25 years the epidemiology of bacterial meningitis has changed significantly due to the implementation of vaccination against Haemophilus influenzae, Neisseria meningtidis group C and Streptococcus pneumoniae.

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.

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.

Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 1990
Tuberculous meningitis is an uncommon but potentially devastating form of tuberculosis. Current antituberculous drugs are highly effective when treatment is initiated early, before the onset of altered mentation or focal neurologic deficits. Because the clinical outcome depends greatly on the stage at which therapy is initiated, early recognition is of

The dura was first described in ancient Egypt. Hippocrates insisted that it should be protected and not penetrated. Celsus proposed an association between clinical findings and meningeal damage. Galen proposed that the dura was attached only at the sutures, and he was the first to describe the pia in humans.
