Meningoencephalomyeloradiculoneuritis in one case of Borrelia burgdorferi infection (Lyme disease).
We describe a patient having serologically confirmed Borrelia burgdorferi infection manifesting meningoencephalomyeloradiculoneuritis. The clinical and MRI features suggested a multifocal vascular nervous system involvement. EMG-ENG showed abnormalities consistent with axonal degeneration initially involving the more proximal segments of the lower limb nerves.
