Neuroborreliosis is a disorder of the central nervous system caused by infection with a spirochete of the genus ''Borrelia''. The microbiological progression of the disease is similar to that of neurosyphilis, another spirochetal infection. Neuroborreliosis occurs as a manifestation of late Lyme disease, although it has also been reported during early infection. ==Signs and symptoms== Neuroborreliosis is often preceded by the typical symptoms of Lyme disease, which include erythema migrans and flu-like symptoms such as fever and muscle aches. Neurologic symptoms of neuroborreliosis include the meningoradiculitis (which is more common in European patients), cranial nerve abnormalities, and altered mental status. Sensory findings may also be present. Rarely, a progressive form of encephalomyelitis may occur. In children, symptoms of neuroborreliosis include headache, sleep disturbance, and symptoms associated with increased intracranial pressure, such as papilledema, can occur. Less common childhood symptoms can include meningitis, myelitis, ataxia, and chorea. Ocular Lyme disease has also been reported, as has neuroborreliosis affecting the spinal cord, but neither of these findings are common.
