Abstract
A 3-year-old girl presented with repeated pyogenic meningitis following a minor head injury at 1 year of age. During the last two years she had three episodes of pyogenic meningitis due to staphylococci and pneumococci. On detailed questioning of parents, we could obtain a definite history of clear watery discharge from right nostril. On examination, there was pallor, neck rigidity and asymmetry of face. CNS examination revealed a right-sided spastic hemiparesis with right-sided facial paresis.
