Procedeu-se às estimativas das gravidade e letalidade, de ambas as meningites, comparando-as entre si, bem como dos respectivos agentes etiológicos específicos. Com base nos 204 pacientes, 141 dos quais, portadores de meningite bacteriana e 63, de meningite viral, viu-se que as primeiras se apresentaram mais graves e mais letais que estas últimas, com excessos de risco de 17,6 e 7,8 por cento, respectivamente. Também evidenciou-se que, apesar de todas as infecçöes bacterianas apresentarem casos graves e incidência de óbitos, a que teve maior número destes desfechos foi a meningite pneumocócica, enquanto que, dentre as virais, a meningite por Herpes simples vírus, foi a única a apresentar tais eventos. Os maiores preditores para a gravidade foram a meningite pneumocócica, a meningite por Herpes simples vírus e a idade de 15 anos ou mais. Já para a letalidade, os preditores, além destes patógenos, foram os menores de 1 ano e evoluçäo clínica para o coma, na meningite bacteriana, e a idade de 15 anos ou mais e evoluçäo para torpor ou coma na viral. Ainda constatou-se que as características liquóricas seguem um padräo bem definido para cada uma das meningites em estudo. / This is a Retrospective Descriptive Cohort study, accomplished through reference book, with patients interned at the São Sebastião State Institute of Infectology, in Rio de Janeiro City, Brazil, in the period from 11/96 to 06/97, with definitive diagnosis of bacterial or viral meningitis. It was proceeded to the estimates of the severity and mortality, of both meningitis, comparing them to each other, as well as the respective pathogens. Based on the 204 patients, 141 of the which, carriers of bacterial meningitis and 63, of viral meningitis, the first ones came more severe and more lethal than these last ones, with excesses of risk of 17,6 and 7,8%, respectively. It was also evidenced that, in spite of all the bacterial infections they present severe cases and obits incidence, the one that had larger number of these was the pneumococcal meningitis, while, of the viral ones, the meningitis for Herpes simplex virus, was the only to present such events. The most importants predictores for the severity were pneumococcal meningitis, herpes simplex virus meningitis and the 15 years-old age or more. Already for the mortality, the predictores, besides these pathogens, was last then 1 year old and clinical evolution for the coma, in the bacterial meningitis, and the 15 years-old age or more and evolution for torpor or coma, in the viral one. It was still verified that the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) characteristic follows a pattern very defined for each one of the meningitis in study.
