Abstract:
:The Food and Drug Administration published a public health warning on the association of bacterial meningitis and cochlear implants in June 2002. This article reports the first case of group A streptococcal (GAS) meningitis in a cochlear-implanted patient, followed by a review on cochlear implantation and GAS meningitis.
