    Author: Sharma A, Mong MS, Minamoto G.
    Journal: AIDS Read; 2002 Dec; 12(12):540-2. PubMed ID: 12521008.
    Abstract:
    A case of a severely immunosuppressed HIV-infected man with meningitis caused by Enterococcus faecalis is presented. E faecalis is a distinctly unusual cause of bacterial meningitis in patients with HIV infection and should be considered in the differential diagnosis of purulent meningitis in such patients to ensure optimal empiric treatment.
