Acute Lyme neuropathy presenting with polyradicular pain, abdominal protrusion, and cranial neuropathy.

A 53-year-old man developed multifocal radicular pain. The diagnosis of Lyme neuroborreliosis was delayed until bifacial paresis and right lower abdominal wall weakness developed, prompting further evaluation. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) examination showed aseptic meningitis. Antibodies directed against Borrelia burgdorferi were present in the serum; higher titers were present in the CSF, indicating local antibody production. Electrophysiologic studies showed both an axonal polyradiculopathy as well as demyelinative facial palsy. Ceftriaxone therapy led to marked improvement in pain and facial palsies.
