Abstract

This paper deals with a case of brain abscess due to Streptobacillus moniliformis (the cause of the streptobacillary type of rat-bite fever) and Actinobacterium meyerii. Brain abscesses due to these micro-organisms are rare. The possible causative mechanisms in this particular case and the diagnostic and therapeutic management of brain abscesses in general are discussed.
