[The peripheral neuromotor apparatus of patients with tick-borne neuroborreliosis (Lyme disease)]

Electroneuromyography and electromyography were performed in 48 and 102 patients, respectively, with Lyme disease-induced algic and amyotrophic syndromes. Electromyographic and clinical findings in the regions of the tick suction correlated. Multiple lesions of the nervous system may be considered as meningoencephalomyeloradiculoneuropathy as well as subclinical multiple mononeuropathy. Pronounced changes in the nerve potential against minimal shifts in peripheral nervous conduction reflect infectious-toxic nature of the condition.
