Article Synopsis
- Microbial seeding of cerebral cavernous malformations is very rare, with only three cases documented before this report.
- This report details the first known instance where Campylobacter fetus, an opportunistic pathogen, caused infection in a brain malformation in a healthy 16-year-old girl.
- After surgical intervention and subsequent tests, the patient was diagnosed with C. fetus meningoencephalitis, highlighting that the malformation likely existed before the infection occurred rather than forming due to it.
