Özet
Today, the importance of easily transmissible and serious diseases has increased due to the widespread human movements such as travel and migration. Invasive meningococcal diseases remain a considerable public health problem, causing small clusters in industrialized countries and large outbreaks in developing countries.

Herein, we aimed to summarize meningococcal diseases and travel-associated infections.
