Abstract

Lyme borreliosis is a multisystem disorder that is diagnosed on the bases of characteristic clinical picture and laboratory confirmation. Although serologic analysis is generally considered the best laboratory method for detecting the disease, false-positive and false-negative results are common with the tests currently in use. We report a case of false-positive Borrelia burgdorferi serology associated with erythema induratum of Bazin.

Özet

Lyme borreliosis, tanısı serolojik bulguların desteklediği karakteristik klinik görünüm ile konan, bir çok sistemi tutan bir hastalıktır. Serolojik inceleme hastalığın tanısını koymada en iyi laboratuar metodu olmasına rağmen, bugün kullanılmakta olan testlerin sonuçlarında yalancı-pozitif ve yalancı-negatif sonuçlar sık görülmektedir. Bu makalede eritema induratum hastalığı ile birlikte görülen yalancı-pozitif Borrelia burgdorferi serolojisi olan bir olgu sunulmaktadır.
