RESUMO

Objetivo. Analizar las características de la meningitis neumocócica en < 14 años tras la comercialización de vacunas antineumocócicas conjugadas en nuestra comunidad. Métodos. Estudio retrospectivo de los casos de meningitis neumocócica en el que se analizaron dos períodos: pre vacuna antineumocócica trecevalente (VNC13v) (2001-2010) y post-VNC13v (2010-2015). Se recogieron datos demográficos y clínicos de los pacientes y datos microbiológicos. Resultados. Se diagnosticaron 18 casos. La incidencia media pre-VNC13v fue de 2,3/100 000, y disminuyó a 0,5/100 000 tras la VNC13v. Los serotipos más frecuentemente identificados fueron 6A y 10A (pre-VNC13v); 6B y 15B (post-VNC13v, solo dos casos). Trece de dieciocho pacientes ingresaron en la Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos. Todos los casos fueron tratados con cefotaxima y recibieron dexametasona 14/18. Seis pacientes sobrevivieron con secuelas y uno falleció. Conclusión. Se observa un importante descenso en la incidencia de meningitis neumocócica desde la comercialización de la VNC13v, por lo que cabe esperar que tras su introducción sistemática se produzca un descenso aún mayor.


Objective. To analyze the characteristics of pneumococcal meningitis in children < 14 years old following the market introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines in our community. Methods. Retrospective study of pneumococcal meningitis cases with a two-period analysis: pre-13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) (2001-2010) and post-PCV13 (2010-2015). Patient demographic and clinical data, and microbiological data were collected. Results. Eighteen cases were diagnosed. The mean incidence in the pre-PCV13 period was 2.3/100 000, which reduced to 0.5/100 000 after the PCV13 introduction. The most commonly identified serotypes were 6A and 10A (pre-PCV13); 6B and 15B (post-PCV13, only 2 cases). Out of 18 patients, 13 were admitted to the intensive care unit. All cases were treated with cefotaxime, and 14/18 received dexamethasone. Six patients survived with sequelae, and 1 died. Conclusion. A major reduction has been observed in the incidence of pneumococcal meningitis since the introduction of the PCV13 to the market, so an even greater reduction is expected following its systematic introduction.
