Meningitis are the most common form of the nervous system infectious diseases. There are\u00a0meningitis and\/or encephalitis with bacterial and viral etiology. In epidemiological surveillance are highlighted\u00a0meningitis and\/or encephalitis caused by N. meningitidis, S. pneumoniae, H. influenzae and tick-borne encephalitis\u00a0virus. Because vaccinations against these agents are common.<br \/><strong>AIM OF THE STUDY<\/strong>. The aim of the study is to assess the epidemiological situation of meningitis and\u00a0encephalitis in Poland in 2017.<br \/><strong>MATERIAL AND METHODS<\/strong>. The epidemiological situation of meningitis and encephalitis in Poland was\u00a0assessed on data from the annual bulletin \u201cInfectious diseases and poisoning in Poland in 2017\u201d and \u201cVaccinations\u00a0in Poland in 2017\u201d. (MP Czarkowski et al., Warsaw 2018, NIZP-PZH, GIS).<br \/><strong>RESULTS<\/strong>. In 2017 were registered 2 095 cases of meningitis and\/or encephalitis in Poland. It means a 10.8%\u00a0decrease in meningitis and\/or encephalitis in Poland compared to 2016. With a general decrease in the number\u00a0of infections of bacterial etiology, the number of cases of meningitis and\/or encephalitis of S. pneumoniae, H.\u00a0influenzae type B cases reported remains at the same level similar to last year. In contrast, the number of cases of\u00a0etiology of N. meningitidis shows an increase of 25.4% compared to the previous year. Among all cases 57.9%\u00a0were viral infections. In comparison to 2016 means a decrease in the percentage share of viral infections by 1.2\u00a0percentage points for bacterial infections.<br \/>Among laboratory confirmed cases of neuroinfection with established etiology, the incidence caused by Neisseria\u00a0miningitidis (122 cases), Streptococcus pneumoniae (171 cases) and tick-borne encephalitis (283 cases) are the\u00a0most prevalent.<br \/><strong>SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION<\/strong>. There is a general downward trend in the number of meningitis and\/or\u00a0encephalitis cases, which may be due to introducing mandatory vaccination against S. pneumoniae. It can also\u00a0mean an improvement in diagnostics given the decrease in unspecified meningitis and\/or encephalitis. However\u00a0meningitis and\/or encephalitis remain a challenge for healthcare and epidemiological surveillance institutions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>STRESZCZENIE<\/strong><br \/><strong>WST\u0118P<\/strong>.

Do przeprowadzenia analizy epidemiologicznej wyst\u0119powania zapalenia opon m\u00f3zgowo\u00a0- rdzeniowych i zapale\u0144 m\u00f3zgu wykorzystano dane nadsy\u0142ane do NIZP-PZH przez Wojew\u00f3dzkie Stacje\u00a0Sanitarno-Epidemiologiczne i publikowane w biuletynach rocznych: \u201eChoroby zaka\u017ane i zatrucia w Polsce.\u201d\u00a0oraz \u201eSzczepienia ochronne w Polsce\u201d.<br \/><strong>WYNIKI<\/strong>.
