pubmed:abstractText |
Despite the availability of potent antimicrobial drugs, bacterial meningitis remains a serious infection with significant morbidity and mortality. In many studies, pyogenic meningitis is reported in patients with immunoglobulin (Ig) and complement deficiencies. In the present study, a broad range of immunological tests were performed to determine the relative importance of primary immunodeficiency as a predisposing cause of first episode of pyogenic meningitis without any evidence of other major infections in past medical history.
