Mollaret's meningitis and herpes simplex virus type 2 infections.

P Farazmand1, P D Woolley, G R Kinghorn.   

Abstract

Benign recurrent aseptic meningitis is a rare disorder described by Mollaret in 1944. When initially described, this form of aseptic meningitis had no identifiable infecting agent. New sophisticated diagnostic tools have now identified herpes simplex type 2 virus as the most commonly isolated agent. Antiviral treatment has been used successfully for prophylaxis and treatment.
