Only registered users can translate articles

From an otological standpoint, Lyme disease can manifest itself as Ménière's disease both clinically and electrophysiologically. The aim of this study was to describe the findings of routine clinical, auditory and vestibular tests in patients with Ménière's and Lyme disease and to use

Intravitreal triamcinolone for macular edema in Lyme disease.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND To describe the outcome in a patient with macular edema caused by Lyme disease treated with injection of 4 mg intravitreal triamcinolone. METHODS The patient, 2 years after systemic Lyme disease treated with doxycycline for 4 weeks, developed macular edema with serous retinal detachment

Presence of Arp specifically contributes to joint tissue edema associated with early-onset Lyme arthritis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Antiserum to the Borrelia burgdorferi arthritis-related protein, Arp, has been shown to prevent or reduce arthritis in immunodeficient mice. To directly investigate the requirement for this lipoprotein in the generation of Lyme arthritis, we utilized targeted deletion to generate a B. burgdorferi

Optic disc edema and Lyme disease.

Only registered users can translate articles

A seven-year-old child developed a febrile rash, migratory arthritis, and neurologic signs. Three days earlier, the child had been bitten by a tick. An eye examination two months later revealed bilateral papilledema, although the cerebrospinal fluid pressure was 170 mm. The IgM antibody titer for

Recurrent uveitis, cystoid macular edema and pericarditis in Lyme disease.

Only registered users can translate articles

Lyme disease has been associated with many systemic and ocular complications. The authors' patient, a 26-year-old man, developed recurrent pars planitis with two episodes of acute pericarditis. Extensive medical investigations were negative except for a highly positive western blot for Borrelia

Oculopalpebral borreliosis as an unusual manifestation of Lyme disease.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To report the case of acrodermatitis chronica atrophicans as an ocularpalpebral manifestation of Lyme borreliosis, with peripheral keratopathy and associated vasculitis. METHODS Case report. RESULTS A 16-year-old girl, with a 4-year history of recurrent left eye photophobia, intense

[Unusual case of bilateral optic neuritis in Lyme neuroborreliosis].

Only registered users can translate articles

The most common manifestations of Lyme disease are neurologic and rheumatologic, but ophthalmologic lesions can also occur and may even be dominant. The authors describe a case of bilateral optic neuropathy associated with Lyme borreliosis that quickly led to near-total blindness. In addition to a

Panuveitis caused by Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato infection.

Only registered users can translate articles

A 13-year-old boy who presented with a red left eye, painful eye movement, blurred vision, photophobia and increased lacrimation, was diagnosed with 1-sided panuveitis with optic disk edema. Diagnostic work-up revealed borrelial antibodies in serum. Diagnosis of Lyme borreliosis was substantiated by

Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Characterizes Myocarditis in a 16-Year-Old Female With Lyme Disease.

Only registered users can translate articles

Myocarditis may occur during early disseminated Lyme disease. A 16-year-old girl with serologic evidence of Borrelia burgdorferi infection and transient first-degree atrioventricular block underwent cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, which demonstrated myocardial hyperemia, edema, and delayed

A painless erythematous swelling of the external ear as a manifestation of Lyme disease: a case report.

Only registered users can translate articles

Lyme disease is the most common tick-borne illness in the USA, Canada, and Europe. Clinical manifestations vary greatly, with localized skin findings functioning as early signs of the disease, followed by disseminated disease. The rarest dermatologic presentation of Lyme is a borrelial

Acute peripheral facial palsy in Lyme disease -- a distal neuritis at the infection site.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Children with acute peripheral facial palsy have often suffered tick bites and/or erythema migrans in the head/neck region on the same side. With respect to the pathogenesis of neuroborreliosis this topographical association was investigated in an animal model. METHODS A Borrelia garinii

Role of IL-17, transforming growth factor-beta, and IL-6 in the development of arthritis and production of anti-outer surface protein A borreliacidal antibodies in Borrelia-vaccinated and -challenged mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

We showed recently that the adaptive immune events leading to the development of arthritis in Borrelia burgdorferi isolate 297-vaccinated and Borrelia bissettii-challenged mice involve IL-17. Here, we show in Borrelia-vaccinated and -challenged mice that two cytokines known to induce the production

MRI features of Lyme arthritis of the hips.

Only registered users can translate articles

Diagnosing Lyme arthritis without a history of travel to endemic regions or erythema migrans can be a challenge. Radiographic and ultrasonographic findings are nonspecific for the diagnosis of Lyme arthritis. We present the MRI features of Lyme disease of the hip in a 4-year-old boy who presented

Induction of lyme arthritis in LSH hamsters.

Only registered users can translate articles

In studies of experimental Lyme disease, a major obstacle has been the unavailability of a suitable animal model. We found that irradiated LSH/Ss Lak hamsters developed arthritis after injection of Borrelia burgdorferi in the hind paws. When nonirradiated hamsters were injected in the hind paws with
