Coming soonA meningococcal carrier is an individual with asymptomatic colonization of the nasopharyngeal mucosa by the bacterium *Neisseria meningitidis* without clinical evidence of invasive disease.
This carrier state primarily affects the upper respiratory epithelium and peaks in prevalence among adolescents and young adults residing in dense social settings.
Pathophysiologically, the bacteria utilize surface structures, such as type IV pili and outer membrane adhesins, to adhere to nonciliated nasopharyngeal epithelial cells and establish a commensal reservoir.
While the vast majority of carriers remain completely asymptomatic, colonized hosts serve as the principal reservoir for person-to-person transmission via respiratory droplets and harbor a potential risk for mucosal breach leading to invasive meningococcemia or meningitis.
