Aseptic meningitis is a common condition, which is caused by many viruses but also from autoimmune etiologies. MRS occurs in 8% of aseptic meningitis cases. Average latencies from the onset of meningeal irritation to urinary symptoms were 0–8 days. However, in some cases, urinary retention precedes fever and headache.
[6] [2] Other signs associated with chronic meningitis include altered mental status or confusion, and papillary edema (swelling of the optic disc). [2] The headache in chronic meningitis is commonly described as diffuse, poorly localized, and constant. Lethargy is a common symptom, with 40% of those having mental status changes. [2]
Autoimmune encephalitis commonly presents an immune response against neuronal autoantigens with production of antibodies. [7] Anti-neuronal antibodies are classified into antibodies against cell surface antigens (CSAab), antibodies against synaptic antigens (SyAab) and antibodies against intraneuronal antigens (INAab), also known as onconeural antibodies.
Naegleriasis, also known as primary amoebic meningoencephalitis (PAM), is an almost invariably fatal infection of the brain by the free-living unicellular eukaryote Naegleria fowleri. Symptoms are meningitis-like and include headache , fever , nausea , vomiting , a stiff neck , confusion , hallucinations and seizures . [ 6 ]
Mollaret's meningitis is a recurrent or chronic inflammation of the protective membranes covering the brain and spinal cord, known collectively as the meninges. Since Mollaret's meningitis is a recurrent, benign (non-cancerous), aseptic meningitis , it is also referred to as benign recurrent lymphocytic meningitis .
