[Lyme carditis].

The authors present in the submitted paper the basic characteristics of Lyme carditis as one of the forms of Lyme borreliosis. They mention briefly the clinical symptoms, diagnostic possibilities and causal and symptomatic therapeutic procedures. In the second part they present conclusions which they obtained by comparison of data in the literature and their own experience with dispensary care of 50 patients during several years. In the conclusion they emphasize the great interindividual variability of the clinical picture not only in the acute stage of the disease but also for years after treatment.
