Meningococcal conjunctivitis, although rare, may be complicated by ocular damage and systemic spread. Identification of the infecting organism is important for appropriate management. Meningococcal infection needs treatment of both the patient and the contacts. We report the use of meningococcal group-C vaccine in the prophylaxis of adult contacts of a neonate with meningococcal conjunctivitis. This measure, we believe, has not been reported before in the management of meningococcal conjunctivitis.
脑膜炎球菌性结膜炎虽然罕见，但可能并发眼部损伤和全身播散。识别感染病原体对于恰当的治疗很重要。脑膜炎球菌感染需要对患者及其接触者都进行治疗。我们报告了使用C群脑膜炎球菌疫苗对一名患脑膜炎球菌性结膜炎新生儿的成年接触者进行预防。我们认为，在脑膜炎球菌性结膜炎的治疗中，这一措施此前尚无报道。
