In bacterial meningitis, the Viridans streptococci group is not considered a prevalent pathogen. In contrast, the S. viridans group may cause endocarditis and fatal infections in immunocompromised children and adults. We report a 5-year-old immunocompetent boy with signs of meningitis. The CSF tested positive for meningitis with streptococcus viridans.
在细菌性脑膜炎中，草绿色链球菌组不被认为是常见病原体。相比之下，草绿色链球菌组可能在免疫功能低下的儿童和成人中引起心内膜炎和致命感染。我们报告一名5岁免疫功能正常的男孩出现脑膜炎症状。脑脊液检测显示草绿色链球菌脑膜炎呈阳性。
