I.はじめに
髄膜炎の治療に当たつてわれわれ臨床医は非常な困難に直面することが少なくない。特に術後合併症としてのそれは患者の全身状態が悪いことと相俟つて極めて重症になることが多く,またどの抗生物質を選択すべきかは細菌培養の結果を待つ時間的余裕がないため,迷うことが多い。われわれは1974年以来髄膜炎に対して,ゲンタマイシン(以下GM)の髄腔内投与により治療し好成績を得て来た。諸外国ではすでにNewman and Holt(1967)10),Loeberら(1970)4),Rahal (1972)13),Rahalら(1974)14),その他の人々により主としてグラム陰性菌による髄膜炎,脳室炎に対して,GMの髄腔内投与による治療が報告されている。今のところ本邦ではまとまつた報告はない。
われわれは都立府中病院脳神経外科における過去3年間の髄膜炎患者40例(主として術後)のうちGMの髄腔内投与により治療された33例(うち30例が術後)について,その効果,副作用,至適投与量を臨床的に検討したので報告する。
The authors report 33 cases of meningitis treated with intrathecally administered gentamicin (GM) and examine it's effectiveness for meningitis, side effects and optimum dose. Of 33 cases 15 cases (group I) were treated with GM alone, 7 cases (group IIa) with GM combined with SB-PC or CP. In 8 cases of the other 11 cases (group IIb) GM was changed for SB-PC or CP because of it's in-efficiency and side effects (6 cases) and other reasons (2 cases). In the remaining three cases of groupIIb SB-PC or CP was changed for GM due to their inefficiency. Maximum intrathecal dose is shown below: 4mg-7 cases, 8mg-5 cases, 10mg-15 cases, 20mg-4 cases, 40mg-2 cases. In all cases GM was not administered systemically, but each of CP, CB-PC, SB-PC and TC was administered systemically.
In group I, only one case died of G-I tract bleeding but the others were cured. In group Ha all but one case was cured. In group IIb one case of cryptococcosis was dead. Total effective cases of intrathecal GM were 17 of 24 cases excluding group Ha (7 cases) and 3 cases of group fib. There was no side effect in cases of which maximum dose was 4-20 mg, but in one of 40 mg administered cases in which GM was injected from cisternal puncture hearing, vestibular and visual function were disturbed permanently. Therefore GM should not be injected into the cistern.
In our conclusion intrathecal GM is thought to be effective in the treatment of meningitis without systemic GM. Effective optimum dose is 4-8mg/ day in adult and if ineffective after 7-10 days GM should be changed for other antibiotics.
