[Unusual manifestations of Lyme borreliosis. A contribution to the clinical spectrum of this disease group].
Hautarzt. 1989 Jul; 40(7):423-9.H

Abstract

Since the discovery that EM (erythema migrans), ACA (acrodermatitis chronica atrophicans) and BL (borrelial lymphocytoma) have an infectious etiology, these syndromes have been receiving particular attention. This report describes four patients whose dermatological symptoms did not at first indicate borreliosis. In all four cases serological antibody tests proved that they were caused by Borrelia burgdorferi. In two of these cases these findings were confirmed by bacterial cultures. The unusual skin symptoms, i.e. multiple disseminated erythema, erysipelas-like manifestations, swelling and discoloration of the eyelids and lichenoid papules, extend the known clinical spectrum of cutaneous borreliosis in Europe.
