ABSTRACT
Two cases of Group A beta-hemolytic streptococcal meningitis are reported. One patient presented with fever, coma, seizure and was associated with skull defect whilst the other had meningitis after surgical removal of an epidural cyst. The first died but the latter completely recovered. This organism should be considered in patients with skin wounds and bacterial meningitis due to Gram-positive cocci.
