Abstract
A 16-year-old girl fell ill with headache of uncertain etiology. Some weeks later an exanthem led to the diagnosis of lues. Characteristic changes in serum and liquor parameters were found. Hearing disorder and choked disc improved during the therapy with penicillin. The rare picture of early luetic meningitis remains important for the differential diagnosis of headache.
