The authors report on 37 new cases of eosinophilic meningitis collected in two years in an island with a population of 1,800. Recalling first the epidemiology of the disease, they describe the most frequent clinical signs met and the results of rachiocentesis which confirm the diagnosis. The disease strikes more than 1% of the population. It might not rapidly disappear as the only efficient prophylaxis would be to deprive the population, very attached to its traditions, of one traditional dish.
作者报告了在一个有1800人口的岛屿上两年内收集到的37例嗜酸性粒细胞性脑膜炎新病例。他们首先回顾了该疾病的流行病学情况，描述了所遇到的最常见临床症状以及证实诊断的腰椎穿刺结果。该疾病影响了超过1%的人口。它可能不会迅速消失，因为唯一有效的预防措施是让非常坚守传统的居民放弃一道传统菜肴。
