Tick paralysis is a toxin-mediated cause of acute flaccid paralysis. Most practitioners will go through their entire career without ever encountering a case. An important veterinary disease, tick paralysis is rare in humans. Although it has certain geographical proclivities, it exists worldwide.

Electrophysiologic measurements in a 9-year-old girl with tick paralysis demonstrated a prolonged distal latency and a decremental response to 30 Hz stimulation. The nerve conduction determinations became normal after clinical recovery. The pathophysiologic process of this disease seems to be within the peripheral nerve although a central site of ...

Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 2008
The one tick-borne disease that rarely comes under the auspices of the infectious disease specialist is not caused by an infectious agent, but is tick paralysis. This condition is caused by tick bite and typically presents as a flaccid ascending paralysis.

Neurology, 1975
A patient with tick paralysis had motor and sensory nerve conduction studies before and after removal of an engorged tick. The amplitudes of muscle action potentials evoked by stimulation of motor nerves were reduced initially, returning to normal after the tick was removed.

Seminars in Neurology, 2013
Tick paralysis is a rare, but readily treatable condition that if missed can lead to significant morbidity and death. The classic clinical presentation of tick paralysis is the development of an unsteady, ataxic type gait followed by an acute symmetric ascending flaccid paralysis. Symptoms generally begin within 2 to 6 days of tick attachment.

Pediatrics, 1948
The three cases of tick paralysis occurring in Virginia in the last two years are presented. One of these cases required the respirator. In this case the tick was identified as Dermacentor variabilis Say. Only ten other cases of tick paralysis have been reported in the eastern United States.

Tick paralysis is a definite clinical entity due to the bite of the tick and characterized by: A sudden onset with severe ataxia, asynergia and paresthesia. An ascending type of flaccid paralysis which may progress and in a few days result in death from bulbar involvement. A dramatic improvement, with the disappearance of all symptoms in twenty-four

The recognition of the first cases of tick paralysis in South Carolina and Georgia in 1938 and the subsequent reports of 15 cases along the eastern seaboard make it essential that the dramatic symptomatology and clinical course of the disease are reemphasized.
