RESUMO
Acute pyogenic meningitis is a medical emergency. Bacteria are the major causative agents of pyogenic meningitis with Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, and Neisseria meningitidis being the most common. Here, we describe a case of bacterial meningoencephalitis caused by Streptococcus porcinus. To our knowledge this is the first case described in literature. The patient was treated with ceftriaxone and supportive treatment.
