Title: Streptococcus bovis septicemia and meningitis associated with chronic radiation enterocolitis

Journal Article · · South. Med. J.; (United States)

We describe the first patient with simultaneous S bovis septicemia and meningitis associated with chronic radiation enterocolitis. This case underlines the value of a thorough gastrointestinal evaluation of all patients with S bovis infection, and the need for a neurologic investigation even with minor neurologic manifestations.
