Mollaret's meningitis: 65 years of history.
"Mollaret’s meningitis is characterized by greater than three episodes of fever, headache and meningismus lasting 2–5 days [2, 5]. Individual attacks are sudden, with signs and symptoms reaching maximum intensity within a few hours. The symptom-free time can vary from weeks to years, and recurrent attacks usually resolve after a period of 3–5 years [4]. The longest case described in the literature was a patient with symptoms lasting more than 28 years."
