摘要
Listeria monocytogenes meningitis is very rare in immunocompetent children. We present a case of a previously healthy 6-year-old girl who developed L. monocytogenes meningitis and ventriculitis. We also review the medical literature on non-neonatal L. monocytogenes meningitis in immunocompetent children.
