A 56-year-old Connecticut woman suffered multiple strokes 18 months after antibiotic treatment for early Lyme disease with facial palsy. Pleocytosis, intrathecal synthesis of anti-Borrelia burgdorferi antibody, and the response to antibiotic treatment substantiated the diagnosis of neuroborreliosis. This is the first report of stroke caused by Lyme disease acquired in North America.
一名56岁的康涅狄格州女性在接受抗生素治疗早期莱姆病伴面瘫18个月后发生多次中风。脑脊液细胞增多、抗伯氏疏螺旋体抗体的鞘内合成以及对抗生素治疗的反应证实了神经型莱姆病的诊断。这是北美地区获得性莱姆病导致中风的首例报告。
