    Schmutzhard, E...
    Neuroborreliosis is an infection of the central and peripheral nervous system caused by spirochetes of the genus Borrelia, possibly by certain genospecies, e.g. B. burgdorferi, genospecies garinii. ... The nervous system is first afficted during the early stage of Lyme Borreliosis with dissemination; the main features include meningitis, radiculoneuritis and polyneuritis cranialis. Late Lyme Borreliosis presents as sensory polyneuropathy in association with acrodermatitis chronica atrophicans or as progressive Borrelia encephalomyelitis. The diagnosis is confirmed by the presence of intrathecally produced specific antibodies and positive culture or PCR respectively. The accepted treatment of neuroborreliosis is either by ceftriaxone, possibly also by penicillin or doxycycline.
