Globicatella sanguinis is an etiological agent of ventriculoperitoneal shunt-associated meningitis.

ABSTRACT: Globicatella sanguinis is a very rare isolate in clinical samples. We present a case of meningitis in a 69-year-old female patient after implantation of an external left ventricular drainage due to a hydrocephalus. She recovered after antibiotic treatment with ceftriaxone.
