Stages and syndromes of neuroborreliosis
Journal of Neurology, 1998To ascertain the varieties of neuroborreliosis, 330 patients were identified at the Departments of Neurology in Würzburg and Giessen from 1979 to 1994. Patients who fullfilled at least one of three strict case definitions based on clinical and laboratory criteria were included in the study.

Infectious Diseases in Clinical Practice
Background Neuroborreliosis is involvement of the nervous system in Lyme disease and can often be overlooked as a diagnosis in patients presenting with cranial neuropathies and meningitis in an endemic area. There can be variability in presentation with respect to the involved cranial nerves, making the diagnosis challenging ...

Chronic neuroborreliosis in infancy
The Italian Journal of Neurological Sciences, 1999Lyme disease is a polymorphic and multisystemic disease caused by Borrelia burgdorferi. Neurological manifestations are found in 10%-50% of cases. We present 2 cases followed for 5 and 6 years of chronic relapsing-remitting neuroborreliosis. Diagnosis of neuroborreliosis in these cases was based on serum and cerebrospinal fluid findings.

Lyme disease, or borreliosis, is an endemic affection in Belgium. It is transmitted by a spirochete, Borrelia burgdorferi. The particularity of the infecting genomic group, Borrelia garinii, implies that half of the reported cases of Lyme disease in our country have neurologic manifestations.

Epidemiology of Lyme Neuroborreliosis
Neurologic Clinics, 2016Lyme disease is caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi and is transmitted to humans through the bite of infected blacklegged ticks. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, it is the most commonly reported vector-borne illness and the fifth most common disease in the National Notifiable Diseases Surveillance System.

Borrelia burgdorferi infection is a frequent disease in our country. The neurological complications of this infection are found essentially in the early dissemination stage and in the late stage of the disease. Neuroborreliosis symptoms are most often characterized by radiculalgia resisting to treatment, sometimes associated to a cranial neuropathy ...

Is Neuroborreliosis a Medical Emergency?
Neurocritical Care, 2006Although Lyme disease affects the nervous system in many ways (collectively known as neuroborreliosis), only rarely does it present as a medical emergency. In extreme cases, it may cause (1) encephalitis, (2) a rapidly progressive peripheral neuropathy, or (3) a painful truncal radiculopathy that may be confused with a severe visceral process.

Der Nervenarzt, 2010
Neuroborreliosis is easily diagnosed by means of clinical symptoms and laboratory findings. Guiding symptoms are radicular pain and pareses of the extremities and the facial nerve. There is a great number of further less frequently occurring neurological symptoms, which can be attributed to a borrelial infection only by appropriate investigations of ...

The therapy of lyme neuroborreliosis
Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2005The challenge for the neurologist in the treatment of Lyme neuroborreliosis is not in the treatment per se, but in the diagnosis. Neurological manifestations of Lyme disease can present in many forms, and diagnostic techniques which detect the spirochete directly; the culture or polymerase chain reaction of the spirochete in cerebrospinal fluid, are of

Diagnosis of Lyme neuroborreliosis
Infectious Diseases, 2019In the present issue of Infectious Diseases Barstad et al have analyzed cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) concentration of CXCL13, a B lymphocyte chemoattractant chemokine, as a marker of disease in a pedi...
