Meningococcemia is a sudden onset and rapidly progressing disease with high mortality (purpura fulminans), which may cause a septic shock and multi-organ failure accompanied by disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). Mortality increases when this disease gives rise to meningococcal meningitis. The fact that it is the cause of neurological sequelae and extremity losses even in the recovering cases makes the support provided by the intensive care unit quite important in the management of cases. A case with meningococcal meningitis with high mortality, who was succesfully treated through the use of supportive methods, such as monitorization, mechanical ventilation practices with new modalities, plasmapheresis and sympathetic ganglion blockage, has been presented in company with the literature.
