Chorio-meningo-encephalitis due to Listeria monocytogenes after renal transplantation

J Yamauchi et al. Jpn J Exp Med. 1978 Apr.

Abstract

A 35-year-old man, who underwent renal transplantation, died of meningo-encephalitis with symptoms of meningitis for only 8 days. The autopsy revealed marked chorio-meningo-encephalitis caused by Listeria monocytogenes. This report on listeriosis in renal transplant patients is the second in our country, where adult cases of listeriosis are rare. Recent knowledge about listeriosis in renal transplants is reviewed and discussed.
