Abstracts

感染性頭血腫合併腦膜炎的病例是很少被報告的。我們報告一例十九天大的女嬰其頭血腫大腸桿菌，腦脊髓液顯示白血球增多。單以抗生素治療不足以清除頭血腫的感染，佐以外科切開及引流能導致明顯臨床上的改進。三個禮拜的抗生素使用完成整個療程。

Infected cephalohematoma associated with meningitis is rarely reported. We report the case of 19- day-old female newborn with a cephalohematoma infected by Escherichia coli, and whose cerebrospinal fluid showed pleocytosis. Antibiotics alone could not eradicate the infection of the cephalohematoma, and surgical incision and drainage resulted in obvious clinical improvement. Three weeks of antibiotic usage completed the course of treatment.
