Candidal meningitis following bacterial meningitis.

M S Gelfand1, Z A McGee, A B Kaiser, F P Tally, J Moses.   

Abstract

Patients 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.
