| Title | Aseptic meningitis as the sole manifestation of Behçet's disease. | | Author(s) | Sakakibara R, Koide N, Kishi M, Ogawa E, Shirai K | | Institution | Neurology Division, Department of Internal Medicine, Sakura Medical Center, Toho University, 564-1 Shimoshizu, Sakura, 285-8741, Japan, sakakibara@sakura.med.toho-u.ac.jp. | | Source | Neurol Sci 2009 Jul 2. | | Abstract | We report a 33-year-old woman who had aseptic meningitis alone, without any other systemic manifestations, due to Behçet's disease. Behçet's disease should be listed as a differential diagnosis of acute aseptic meningitis because, in acute aseptic meningitis caused by Behçet's disease, early treatment with corticosteroids could ameliorate this disorder. | | Language | ENG | | Pub Type(s) | JOURNAL ARTICLE
