Abstrakt: | We report 2 infants hospitalized with Cronobacter sakazakii meningitis. Each infant had exposure to powdered infant formula at home. Both infants survived, but 1 infant had a subdural empyema drained and developed left sensorineural hearing loss. Early advanced brain imaging is recommended in infants with C. sakazakii meningitis. Reporting to state and federal public health officials may help identify outbreaks. Competing Interests: M.S.E. is the recipient of a personal services agreement from Texas State University. The other authors have no conflicts of interest to disclose. (Copyright © 2021 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc. All rights reserved.) |
