Acute Pyogenic Meningitis Probably Due to Acanthamoeba sp.: a Preliminary Report

Case 1 had been investigated thoroughly on three different occasions but'not diagnosed, and had the diverticulum not remained filled at the time of the recent examination the nature of the complaint would have again been missed. In Case 2 the problem was of treatment and not of diagnosis. A more conservative approach was employed in the first instance in view of the proximity of the forthcoming confinement. In retrospect it is felt that the use of Ellik's procedure would have been less difficult than surgical excision in the presence of the considerable chronic inflammatory reaction. Case 3 in par- ticular would tend to favour the congenital origin of the lesion.
