Staphylococcal meningitis: a complication of psoas abscess.

J Spotkov, S Z Garber, J Ruskin.   

Abstract

A previously healthy 59-year-old woman presented with fever, neck stiffness, and localized back tenderness. Spinal fluid and blood cultures grew Staphylococcus aureus. A diagnosis of pyogenic meningitis was made, but further investigation revealed that the meningitis arose from a clinically occult psoas abscess.
