Abstract
Meningitis and intracranial abscess due to Proteus mirabilis is seen especially in the neonatal period and among the patients with immune deficiency. It was learned that 35 years old male patient who applied to the emergency room with ongoing fever, nausea and vomiting for three days have had their upper left jaw tooth out 10 days ago. As clinical and laboratory to patients with acute bacterial meningitis empirical ceftriaxone 2x2 gr/day parenteral was started. The cranial MR of the patient, that has P. mirabilis producing in their blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) culture, was taken at the seventh day of hospitalization as his complaints started again. In the MR, abscess was detected in the left temporal brain of the patient and a surgical treatment was applied. Complete healing was seen eight week treatment with antibiotics after surgery. During application it was though that meningitis has occurred due to the dental surgery, however after the temporal BT, mastoiditis was detected. It was thought that meningitis and brain abscess developed on the patient was caused by mastoiditis. Even with sensitive antibiotics if no recovery is observed in patients with meningitis, intracranial abscess should be considered, also it should not be forgotten that in adults and patients with no immune deficiency meningitis due to P. mirabilis may develop. © 2010 Düzce Medical Journal
