Abstract
Post-neurosurgical infection is a common complication of neurosurgery, and serious infection can threaten the life of patients. In recent years, the increase in multidrug-resistant bacteria, especially carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE), has proved fatal to patients. Although there are a few cases of CRE meningitis and few clinical trials have been carried out, it has attracted increasing attention with the increasing probability of its occurrence, especially considering that there are few successful cases. An increasing number of studies are also looking for the risk factors and clinical symptoms of CRE intracranial infection. In terms of treatment, some new antibiotics are gradually being used in the clinic, but due to the complicated drug-resistant mechanism of CRE and the obstruction of the blood‒brain barrier (BBB), the therapeutic effect is still very poor. In addition, obstructive hydrocephalus and brain abscess caused by CRE meningitis are still important causes of patient death and are also difficult to treat.
