Abstract
The incidence of gram-negative bacillary meningitis has increased significantly in the past two decades. Approximately two thirds of all reported cases have occurred after neurosurgical procedures. With the development of the newer cephalosporins, the overall mortality rate has decreased from 40 to 80 per cent to 10 to 20 per cent.Entities:
