Recurrent bacterial meningitis is a rare disease which is associated with congenital or acquired anatomical defects of CNS and surround structures, or it may be due to parameningeal foci of infection, defects in immune response, and post-operative state of shunt procedure in hydrocephalus. We experienced the patient of recurrent bacterial meningitis with CSF rhinorrhea due to structural defect which was not defined exactly. We identified...

One patient with a history of recurrent bacterial meningitis was examined with skull and sinus radiographs, routine cranial computed tomography and immunologic evaluation. None of these studies were diagnostic. Thin-section (1-2 mm) direct coronal computed cranial tomography demonstrated congenital cribriform plate defect. This patient was repaired surgically and no further meningitis has developed for 16 months

With the dramatic lowering the mortality rate of bacterial meningitis since the introduction of antibacterial agents, multiple attacks of bacterial meningitis no longer are a curiosity. So multiple attacks of bacterial meningitis may be the only indication of the existence of an abnormal communication between the nasopharynx or ear and the meningeal space and such a communication must be found. We...
A Case of Eosinophilic Granuloma with Recurrent Bacterial Meningitis associated with CSF Rhinorrhea.
Eung Deok Choi, Mee Kyung Namgoong, Seung Ha Yoo, Baek Keun Lim, Jong Soo Kim, Tae Seung Kim

We experienced a case of eosinophilic granuloma with multiple lesions on skull, ribs, vertebrae, tibia and pelvic bone. In addition, recurent bacterial meningitis was associated with CSF rhinorrhea probably due to osteolytic lesion of eosinophilic granuloma in the same patient. A brief review of literature was made.
