Changes in aircraft cabin pressure may result in bacterial meningitis in passengers with particular risk factors. The participation of multiple factors stands out, such as barotrauma, ear nose throat bacteria and cerebrospinal fluid leakage. As this is a neglected topic in aviation medicine, a synopsis of cases observed and previously published is presented.
