https://doi.org/10.29001/2073-8552-2022-37-4-161-165
Abstract
The problem of systemic manifestations of borreliosis is relevant due to the wide distribution of ixodid ticks in the territory of the Russian Federation. The article presents a clinical case illustrating the course of borreliosis in a patient with developed cardiac complications, timely detection of which made it possible to establish a correct diagnosis, identify the pathogen, and prescribe etiotropic treatment. The described case demonstrates the need for increased seasonal attentiveness in the analysis of clinical information and research results, the collection of an extended epidemiological history, a comprehensive assessment of the patient’s condition, and the analysis of all changes in organs and systems.
