What we have learned about Lyme borreliosis from studies in children

Sunil K Sood. Wien Klin Wochenschr. 2006 Nov.

Abstract

Although pediatric Lyme borreliosis (LB) need not be a separate nosological entity, there are clinically important differences in presentation, antibiotic regimens and outcomes in children, which provide lessons that can be extrapolated to the disease as it affects adults. A large proportion of the worldwide data is obtained from children. The aim of this presentation is not to present an exhaustive review of the pediatric literature, but to review a selection of pediatric studies that have made a significant contribution to our body of knowledge in Lyme borreliosis.
