ABSTRACT
Lyme disease is a multisystem pathology with dermatological, rheumatological, cardiovascular and neurological clinical
manifestations.
Clinical case. A 17-year-old female resident of Mexico City who was admitted with intracranial hypertension data of 72
hours of evolution accompanied by sudden-onset right strabismus. Tomography reports optic neuritis and hyperintense
lesions in white matter. In her evolution, she presented secondary hydrocephalus, as well as subarachnoid hemorrhage
and herniation. Within her approach, Lyme disease was considered, which was confirmed with positive igg by Western
blot for
Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato. Her evolution was rapidly progressive, with a fatal outcome.
Conclusions. Neuroborreliosis is one of the many clinical spectrums that Lyme disease has. It should be investigated
in patients with acute neurological disorders.
