Listeria Monocytogenes Meningoencephalitis in the Elderly Caused by Needle Injection: A Case Report

2023-05-19

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Listeria is widely distributed in nature, and Listeria monocytogenes is the main strain that causes human infections. Listeriosis is usually a food-borne disease with low incidence and high mortality, and elderly individuals with low immunity are at a high risk of infection. However, we report a very rare case of injection-induced Listeria monocytogenes meningoencephalitis in an elderly indiv...
