Data concerning the incidence of meningeal syndromes during the course of leptospirosis are analyzed, in relation to the Italian epidemiological situation in the years 1973-1976. From this analysis, some characteristic aspects concerning meningitis from leptospiras emerge. Specifically: the remarkable frequency of meningeal syndromes in leptospirosis; the greater incidence of the syndrome among young people; the neurotropism common to all serotypes of leptospira observed in Italy. These data suggest to extend the search for leptospiroses in all forms of the so called aseptic meningitis in order to determine better the actual incidence of leptospiroses in meningeal syndromes.
分析了1973 - 1976年期间与意大利流行病学情况相关的钩端螺旋体病病程中脑膜综合征的发病率数据。通过该分析，出现了一些关于钩端螺旋体性脑膜炎的特征性方面。具体而言：钩端螺旋体病中脑膜综合征的显著频率；该综合征在年轻人中发病率更高；在意大利观察到的所有钩端螺旋体血清型均具有嗜神经性。这些数据表明，应在所有形式的所谓无菌性脑膜炎中扩大对钩端螺旋体病的搜索，以便更好地确定脑膜综合征中钩端螺旋体病的实际发病率。
