| Description |
The genus Neisseria contains 12 species, two of which, N. meningitidis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae, are commonly pathogenic in humans. Both may cause infections in the CNS, primarily meningitis and meningoencephalitis, but also abscesses, empyemas, and thrombophlebitis. Other species of Neisseria are only rarely implicated as causes of CNS infection. |
