    Journal: Scand J Infect Dis; 2007; 39(11-12):1076-9. PubMed ID: 17852903.
    Abstract:
    27 cases of Actinobacillus ureae infections including 14 cases of meningitis have been reported. We describe 1 case of Actinobacillus ureae meningitis in a 75-y-old patient. Risk factors, clinical outcome and treatment of Actinobacillus ureae infections are discussed. Actinobacillus ureae may behave as an opportunistic pathogen causing severe infections in immunocompromised patients.
