Mollaret的脑膜炎是一种罕见的疾病，具有特征性的临床和脑脊液图像。在其自然史、发作方式和秋水草碱反应方面，它在许多方面与复发性遗传性多浆液炎（家族性地中海热）相似。到目前为止，这两种情况的关联仅在两例患者中有报道。在我们的病人中，这两种情况的症状都是由甲氨醇刺激输注引起的。我们以前曾介绍过，这是一种针对复发性遗传性多浆膜炎的特异性诊断和确诊试验。这两种情况代表同一种疾病的不同表现的可能性因此得到加强。
Mollaret's meningitis is a rare condition with a characteristic clinical and cerebrospinal fluid picture. In many ways it resembles recurrent hereditary polyserositis (familial Mediterranean fever) in its natural history, pattern of attacks, and response to colchicine. Association of the two conditions has been reported, so far, in two patients only. In our patient the symptoms of both conditions were induced by a metaraminol provocative infusion. We have previously introduced this as a specific diagnostic and confirmatory test for recurrent hereditary polyserositis. The possibility that the two conditions represent different manifestations of a single disease is therefore strengthened.
