Abstract
We report on clinical and laboratory findings of 28 patients with tick-bite Borrelia burgdorferi-infection. In 5 cases chronic tertiary metaluetic manifestations were recognized. All were treated either with high-dose penicillin intravenously or tetracycline. Results of treatment and recommendations are given.
