A Case of Tularemia Meningitis in Sweden

Abstract
Tularemia meningitis occurred in a previously healthy 64-year-old man from Northern Sweden. The patient was immunocompetent and recovered without sequelae. The bacterial isolate conformed by most criteria with the Euro-Asian biovar Francisella tularensis var, palaearctica. Tularemia meningitis may mimic meningitis caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
