Infections caused by Neisseria meningitidis represent one of the most important health problems worldwide. Approximately 10% of the population are asymptomatic carriers of this bacterium. Pharyngitis is observed in noninvasive types of infection. The most serious form of infection caused by meningococci is the development of an invasive type of disease,

Neisseria meningitidisis an exclusive human pathogen. The organism was first recognized by Weichselbaum in 1887 in the spinal fluid of six patients with acute cerebrospinal meningitis. He called itDiplococcus intracellularis meningitidisbecause of the presence of the organism within leukocytes from the spinal fluid.

Neisseria meningitidis, a Respiratory Pathogen?
Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1970The literature on meningococcal disease in the past few years has been dominated by discussions of sulfonamide resistance, prophylaxis, intravascular coagulation in fulminant disease, and determination of additional serological groups. This paper considers yet another facet, namely, the role of the meningococcus in respiratory disease and bacterial ...

Vascular colonization by Neisseria meningitidis
Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2012Bacterial infection of human vasculature can lead to unregulated systemic activation of coagulation and innate immunity and rapidly becomes life threatening. Neisseria meningitidis is a vascular pathogen that causes fatal sepsis and meningitis. Post-mortem histological analysis of tissues from individuals infected with N.

THE ISOLATION ofNeisseria meningitidisfrom the genitourinary tract and anal canal of persons tested for gonorrhea has been noted with increasing frequency. While urethritis, epididymitis, and pelvic inflammatory disease are usually associated with the gonococcus, two epidemiologically linked cases of these local complications occurred in sexual ...
