Abstract
Group A Streptococcus (GAS) is a rare cause of meningitis. Although it has a high mortality, the condition is easily treatable if diagnosed early since the bacteria retains its sensitivity to many antimicrobials. The authors report here two cases of GAS meningitis along with a review of world literature.
