Myelopathy secondary to neonatal bacterial meningitis
Abstract
Myelopathy is an infrequently reported complication of bacterial meningitis. Four patients with neonatal meningitis and cervical myelopathy are reported. This complication may be more frequent than presumed and should be closely assessed during evaluation. The conditions of most previously reported survivors improved or resolved and the majority involved the cervical spinal cord.
