摘要
Neisseria sicca is considered to be a nonpathogenic oral saprophyte. Presented here is an unusual case of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunt infection by N. sicca. Although medical management of the common community-acquired meningitides, including infection by Neisseria meningitidis, is often successful in patients with CSF shunts, removal and replacement of the infected shunt was necessary in this case.
