Abstract EN

Lyme disease is a tick-transmitted multisystem inflammatory disease caused by the spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi.

With more than 25,000 CDC reported cases annually, it has become the most common vector-borne disease in the United States.

We report a case of 38-year-old man with Lyme disease presenting with simultaneous palsy of 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th, and 10th cranial nerves.
