We report the case of fatal anthrax meningoencephalitis in the province of Muş located in eastern Anatolia, Turkey. The organism isolated from cerebrospinal fluid was identified as Bacillus anthracis. The patient was treated with crystallized penicillin G (24 MU/day IV) and ciprofloxacin (2 × 400/day IV), but died 5 days after hospitalization. Although it is a rare case, we consider that the patients who have skin, respiratory and neurological systems might also have hemorrhagic meningitis.
我们报告了一例发生在土耳其安纳托利亚东部穆什省的致命性炭疽性脑膜脑炎病例。从脑脊液中分离出的病原体被鉴定为炭疽芽孢杆菌。患者接受了结晶青霉素G（静脉注射，24 MU/天）和环丙沙星（静脉注射，2×400/天）治疗，但在住院5天后死亡。尽管这是一例罕见病例，但我们认为患有皮肤、呼吸系统和神经系统疾病的患者也可能发生出血性脑膜炎。
