  • Neonatal meningitis and ventriculitis caused by <i>Enterobacter cloacae</i> after surgery for jejunal atresia

    Journal of Japan Society of Perinatal and Neonatal Medicine ( Japan Society of Perinatal and Neonatal Medicine )  56 ( 2 ) 335 - 342   2020

    <p> <i>Enterobacter cloacae</i>, a gram-negative bacillus, is a member of the normal gut microbiota; however, it is often highly virulent in neonates. Notably, neurological sequelae of meningitis may occur despite the administration of systemic antibiotics. We describe a female neonate weighing 2,309 g born at 33 weeks and 4 days of gestation who developed <i>E. cloacae</i> meningitis and ventriculitis after undergoing surgery for jejunal atresia. She developed severe cerebral necrosis despite treatment with high-dose carbapenem. We speculated that bacterial translocation of <i>E. cloacae</i> secondary to surgical injury caused meningitis and ventriculitis. <i>E. cloacae</i> can rapidly colonize the gut in neonates soon after birth; therefore, early identification of this highly pathogenic organism is important to initiate prompt and optimal infection control measures, particularly in neonates undergoing gastrointestinal surgery.</p>
