| Povzetek: | In prior studies, the skin lesion erythema migrans (EM) was present for a longer time period before diagnosis of concomitant borrelial meningoradiculoneuritis (Bannwarth’s syndrome) compared to EM patients without neurologic symptoms. To determine if this observation pertains to other manifestations of Lyme neuroborreliosis (LNB), we compared EM characteristics in patients with borrelial meningoradiculoneuritis (n = 122) to those with aseptic meningitis without radicular pain (n = 72 patients), and to patients with EM but without neurologic involvement (n = 12,384). We also assessed factors that might impact duration. We found that the duration of EM at diagnosis in patients with borrelial meningoradiculoneuritis was not significantly different compared with those with LNB without radicular pain (34 vs. 26 days; p = 0.227). The duration of EM for each of these clinical presentations of LNB, however, was significantly longer than in patients with EM without LNB (10 days; p < 0.001). Contributing factors to this difference might have been that patients with LNB failed to recognize that they had EM or were unaware of the importance of not delaying antibiotic treatment for EM. In conclusion, the duration of the EM skin lesion in EM patients with LNB is longer than in patients with just EM, irrespective of the type of LNB. |
