Боррелиоз как причина острого симптоматического эпилептического приступа у стационарного пациента: клинический случай

Abstract

Lyme disease (borreliosis) is a multisystem inflammatory infectious disease caused by the spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi, transmitted to humans transmissively through the bite of a tick of the ixodic group. Lyme disease is the most common tick-borne infectious disease in Europe. Depending on the time interval from the moment of the tick bite and before the development of clinical symptoms, both early and delayed symptoms are characteristic of borreliosis. Neurological manifestations (neuroborreliosis) occur in 3-15% of cases of infection with borreliosis [1] and, depending on the level of damage to the nervous system, they can manifest themselves in the form of polyradiculitis, meningitis and encephalitis. Neuroborreliosis is also characterized by both early (acute) and delayed clinical manifestations. Often, even after cured borreliosis, residual symptoms in the neurological status may persist. This clinical analysis will describe a clinical case of encephalitis in a patient with borreliosis and being treated in a coronavirus hospital.
