Abstract:
The incidence of cerebral complications from citrobacter meningitis is high, and these problems are often difficult to diagnose clinically. Cranial sonography provides the ideal imaging modality to detect the early complications of meningitis and the problems that may occur during or after treatment. Early and serial use of cranial sonography should help to preserve brain tissue and minimize the long-term neurologic deficits that arise from this disease.
