Abstract

A 5-year-old child with simultaneous early Lyme disease and human granulocytic ehrlichiosis (HGE) is described. Because of the shared vector, HGE and Lyme disease are increasingly identified as coinfections in tick-exposed patients. Early recognition of concurrent Lyme disease and HGE is important because amoxicillin, an antibiotic of choice for young children with early Lyme disease, is ineffective for HGE.

摘要

本文描述了一名同时患有早期莱姆病和人类粒细胞埃立克体病（HGE）的5岁儿童。由于传播媒介相同，HGE和莱姆病在蜱虫叮咬患者中越来越多地被发现为合并感染。早期识别同时存在的莱姆病和HGE很重要，因为阿莫西林是早期莱姆病幼儿的首选抗生素，但对HGE无效。
