Neisseria meningitidis serogroup 29E (Z') septicemia in a patient with far advanced multiple myeloma (plasma cell leukemia).

E Wachter, A E Brown, T E Kiehn, B J Lee, D Armstrong.   

Abstract

A case of septicemia caused by Neisseria meningitidis serogroup 29E (Z') in a patient with plasma cell leukemia is described. The patient developed disseminated intravascular coagulation, had a cardiopulmonary arrest, and died. The effects of altered immune function leading to a predisposition to meningococcal infections are discussed.
