Abstract
Neisseria meningitidis is common within the human population. Most patients with N. meningitidis colonization are asymptomatic, but invasive disease can result in meningitis, fulminant septicemia, and disseminated intravascular coagulation. This case report describes a patient who presented with symptoms of sepsis and was later diagnosed with N. meningitidis. The cause of her infection was believed to be immunosuppression from adalimumab, which she was taking for systemic hidradenitis suppurativa.
