Invasive pneumococcal disease following treatment for choroid plexus carcinoma.

Mette Jorgensen1, Jessica Bate, Sylvia Gatscher, Julia C Chisholm.   

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: A 13-month-old child was treated for choroid plexus carcinoma with partial embolisation, complete surgical excision and chemotherapy. The patient's course was complicated by the presence of chronic bilateral subdural collections. CASE REPORT: Four months from completing treatment, the child presented with an empyema in the subdural space caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae subtype 6A. DISCUSSION: The case highlights a number of questions about pneumococcal immunisation after standard chemotherapy. Evidence-based guidelines are required urgently to direct best practice.
