Lethal meningoencephalitis and septicemia caused by Haemophilus influenzae type f in an adult with multiple myeloma.

W C Wagener, R L Myerowitz, G M Dulabon.   

Abstract

A patient with chemotherapy-treated multiple myeloma developed overwhelming sepsis and meningoencephalitis with Haemophilus influenzae type f. Typable H. influenzae other than type b has only rarely been reported as a cause of serious disease in adults. The patient's immunosuppressed status presumably predisposed her to this unusual infection.
