Meningitis in immunocompromised Stock Photos and Images
RFJMXDAF–Meningitis caused by the fungus Cryptococcus, computer illustration. Cryptococcus neoformans is the common cause of meningitis in HIV-infected patients. The illustration shows swelling of meninges and close-up view of C. neoformans.
RMKR111P–This photomicrograph shows Gram-negative Actinobacillus ureae, formerly Pasteurella ureae bacteria grown in a culture medium for 24 hours, 1971. The bacterium Actinobacillus ureae is a common inhabitant of the human nasopharynx, and is an infrequent cause of meningitis in debilitated, immunocompromised patients, i.e. AIDS, long term chemotherapy, etc. Image courtesy CDC/Dr. Robert Weaver.
RF2R726YP–Multiple brain parenchyma lesions caused by fungus Cryptococcus neoformans, illustration. C. neoformans is a yeast- like organism. Cryptococcosis is a
RFJMXDA3–Cryptococcal brain lesions. Illustration of multiple brain parenchyma lesions caused by the fungus Cryptococcus neoformans and a close-up view of the fungus. C. neoformans is a yeast-like organism. Cryptococcosis is a rare infection that affects people with a deficient immune system such as in AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome). It is caused by inhaling the fungus found in soil contaminated by pigeon droppings. Infection may cause meningitis, or single or multiple lesions in brain parenchyma. Cryptococcus neoformans var. gattii more commonly produces parenchyma lesions while

RFGA3N32–Listeria bacteria, computer illustration. Listeria are Gram-positive rod-shaped bacteria. The species L. monocytogenes is a human pathogen, causing the disease listeriosis. Symptoms of listeriosis include fever, meningitis and encephalitis (swelling of the brain). It is caught from contaminated food and is most common in newborns, the elderly and immunocompromised patients.
