Two cases opf bacterial meningitis due to streptococci occurred following Pantopaque myelography. These are, to our knowledge, the first reports of Streptococcus mitus and group G streptococcus causing meningitis in this situation. These 2 cases emphasize the importance of considering the possibility of bacterial meningitis following myelography and the difficulty in differentiating it on clinical grounds from the more common aseptic meningitis that occurs after myelography. They also emphasize the importance of maintaining strict sterile technique during myelography.
两例因链球菌引起的细菌性脑膜炎发生在碘苯酯脊髓造影术后。据我们所知，这是关于缓症链球菌和G群链球菌在此种情况下引起脑膜炎的首次报道。这两例病例强调了在脊髓造影术后考虑细菌性脑膜炎可能性的重要性，以及临床上将其与脊髓造影术后更常见的无菌性脑膜炎相鉴别的困难。它们还强调了在脊髓造影术中保持严格无菌技术的重要性。
