Abstract

usually causes infection limited to the skin, subcutaneous tissue and regional lymph nodes. Contamination occurs through inhalation or accidental inoculation from animal scratches and bites. Meningitis is rare and mostly occurs in immunosuppressed patients. Here, we describe an immunocompetent person who developed chronic meningitis and discuss the diagnosis, differential diagnosis and treatment of this rare condition.

摘要

通常引起局限于皮肤、皮下组织和区域淋巴结的感染。感染是通过吸入或动物抓挠和咬伤的意外接种而发生的。脑膜炎很少见，主要发生在免疫功能低下的患者中。在这里，我们描述了一例免疫功能正常的患者发生慢性脑膜炎，并讨论了这种罕见情况的诊断、鉴别诊断和治疗。
