Pierre Mollaret is mainly known for his contributions to infectious diseases and their prevention. He also described benign, recurrent endothelio-leukocytic meningitis in three patients who had short-lived recurrent attacks of fever, headache and vomiting caused by sterile meningitis, with 'fantomes cellulaires' (cell ghosts) in the cerebrospinal fluid. Identical symptoms are caused by Herpes simplex virus-2 and other viruses. The term Mollaret's meningitis should be restricted to idiopathic recurrent aseptic meningitis. This paper briefly outlines the syndrome and its discoverer.
皮埃尔·莫拉雷主要因其在传染病及其预防方面的贡献而闻名。他还描述了3例良性复发性内皮细胞性脑膜炎患者，这些患者因无菌性脑膜炎而出现短暂的发热、头痛和呕吐反复发作，脑脊液中出现“细胞幻影”。单纯疱疹病毒2型和其他病毒也会引起相同症状。莫拉雷脑膜炎这一术语应仅限于特发性复发性无菌性脑膜炎。本文简要概述了该综合征及其发现者。
