Abstract

We described clinical course and outcome of a patient with Listeria monocytogenes meningitis and rhombencephalitis (RE). A 65-year-old woman with past medical history of chemotherapy and radiotherapy for cervical cancer applied to emergency room with the history of fever and headache for three days. Clinical course indicating meningitis evolved to RE over time. We present this case because of the significance of early diagnosis and adequate antimicrobial therapy targeted to the pathogen. At the end, we suggested an algorithm for the case management.
菱形脑炎伴单核细胞增生李斯特菌
我们描述了一例单核细胞增生李斯特菌脑膜炎和菱形脑炎(RE)患者的临床过程和结果。65岁女性,既往宫颈癌化疗、放疗病史,以发热、头痛3天就诊于急诊室。临床病程表明脑膜炎随着时间的推移演变为RE。我们提出这一情况,因为早期诊断和适当的抗菌治疗针对病原体的意义。最后,提出了一种病例管理算法。
