abstract: Retrospective clinical study on 422 files of pneumonia and on 124 files of meningitis occurred from January 1981 to December 1983 in the CNHU of Cotonou. The study of 25 cases of pneumonia with meningeal involvement enabled to demonstrate that, because of its complications, pneumonia remains a severe complaint, in spite of diversity of available antibiotics.
