[Tuberculous meningoencephalitis in post-embryo transfer status].
A 30-year old pregnant woman, who received an embryo transfer, suffered since the 12th week of pregnancy from therapy-resistant attacks of fever for several weeks. With progressive deterioration, the increasingly somnolent patient showed by now clear signs of meningism and acid-fast bacilli were found in the cerebrospinal fluid. NMR showed a finding consistent with bacterial meningoencephalitis. During therapy with INH, Rifa and EMB, the clinical course and the CSF findings showed rapid improvement. Nevertheless, spontaneous abortion occurred in the 23rd week of pregnancy. Previous history revealed, that granulomatous salpingitis had been diagnosed several years earlier as the reason for infertility.
