Group B hemolytic streptococcus (GBS) is the most common cause of neonatal sepsis and meningitis. However, hydrocephalus as a presentation of neonatal GBS meningitis has not been reported. We report herein the case of a 23-day-old male infant who presented with significant hydrocephalus and subtle seizures, without a febrile episode, due to GBS meningitis. The infant needed a 3-week course of antibiotics, a ventriculoperitoneal shunt and anticonvulsant therapy.
B族溶血性链球菌（GBS）是新生儿败血症和脑膜炎的最常见病因。然而，以脑积水作为新生儿GBS脑膜炎的一种表现尚未见报道。我们在此报告一例23日龄男婴，因GBS脑膜炎出现明显脑积水和轻微惊厥，无发热发作。该婴儿需要3周的抗生素疗程、脑室腹腔分流术和抗惊厥治疗。
