Ventriculitis due to Chryseobacterium indologenes can be a major therapeutic challenge, especially when the germ acquires intra-treatment resistance to common antimicrobials. Intraventricular tigecycline could be an excellent option in these cases. We present a schoolgirl`s case who received successfully intraventricular treatment with tigecycline.
