Abstract
Recurrent meningitis due to Escherichia coli is an extremely rare infection in adult patients. Most cases have been complications of neurosurgery. We report on the case of a 43-y-old man with 4 recurrent spontaneous episodes of E. coli meningitis related to aspergillar sphenoidal sinusitis. Surgical treatment of sinusitis cured the patient.
