Abstract:
We report a case of fatal meningitis due to Staphylococcus (S.) Cohnii in a 63-year-old male. S. Cohnii is often isolated from farm animals and known to be less pathogenic in humans. To our knowledge, S. Cohnii has not yet been reported to cause infection of the central nervous system in humans.
