Hepatitis due to Listeria monocytogenes is uncommon in adults. This report describes the first case observed in Senegal. The patient was a 73-year old man presenting listeria-related hepatitis presumably secondary to low-grade meningeal encephalitis. Treatment using ampicillin was unsuccessful and the patient died four days after hospitalization. The authors note that the incidence of adult listeriosis has risen constantly for the past twenty years in relation with alcohol abuse, cirrhosis, diabetes, kidney insufficiency, cancer, AIDS, and organ transplantation. However no predisposing factors were observed in the present case.
