Abstrakt | An evaluation of the characteristic skin lesion caused by Borrelia burgdorferi in Croatia was attempted. Informations on erythema chronicum migrans (ECM), lymphocytoma cutis (LCC) and acrodermatitis chronica atrophicans (ACA) were evaluated. During the years 1988, 1989 and the first half of 1990, 965 cases were reported: 907 of ECM (94 per cent ), 42 of LCC (4,3 per cent ) and 16 of ACA ( 1,7 per cent ). The regional distribution showed that skin manifestations of Lyme disease are not rare in the woody areas of Western and Central Croatia, but the disease is rare in Istria and Dalmatia. | |
