HIV PATIENTS ALONG PRESENTING MENINGITIS DEVELOPMENT AFTER TRAUMA & YIELDED CRYPTOCOCCUS NEOFORMANS & STREPTOCOCCUS PNEUMONIAE PATHOGENS GROWTH

Meningitis is one of the serious diseases which has an association with the significant rate of mortality and morbidity among patients. The morbidity and mortality rates associated with meningitis are considerably high among patients. There is a rare occurrence of mixed meningeal infections because of the fungi and bacteria. These occurrences are exceptionally rare. In this particular research, we have studies a rare meningeal co-infection case with Streptococcus pneumonia and Cryptococcus neoformans along with an unknown deficiency of human immune virus status at Jinnah Hospital, Lahore from February to September 2017. As such cases are rarely reported to the hospitals so for every cerebrospinal fluid, stringent screening of the specimen imperatively excludes the multiple pathogens presence. The evaluation of the immunodeficiencies among patients for isolated cases is an opportunity organism such as the requirement of the Cryptococcus.
