摘要：
Actinobacillus (Pasteurella) ureae is a commensal of the human nasopharynx that is a rare cause of meningitis. We present an HIV-infected patient with this condition. His case, and those previously reported in the literature, implicate head trauma or a neurosurgical procedure in the pathogenesis of this condition. The patient responded to initial empiric therapy with ceftriaxone, followed by intravenous penicillin.
