Abstract
Staphylococcal meningitis (SM) ranks fourth in the etiological structure of purulent bacterial meningitis in the Russian Federation. The most common cause of staphylococcal meningitis is Staphylococcus aureus, which accounts for 68 % of all cases. This meningitis is characterized by a higher mortality rate (30 %) than staphylococcal meningitis of other types of Staphylococcus (13 %) and mainly affects people over 25 years of age. With increasing age, the probability of death increases, and among people over 65 years of age, the mortality rate reaches 44 %.
