Pain is one of the presenting symptoms in acute neuroborreliosis.
Classically, acute neuroborreliosis--also known in Europe as Bannwarth's
syndrome--is a
combination of radicular pain, cranial neuritis and peripheral radiculitis and
inflammatory changes of the CSF. The prognosis following antibiotic therapy is
favorable. At least in its early stages, however, the diagnosis
neuroborreliosis might be missed or mistaken. Thus, targeted assessment of
typical signs is
needed to expedite examination of the CSF which then permits definitive
diagnosis.
