Its clinical spectrum ranges from early localized erythema migrans to disseminated neurological, cardiac, and rheumatologic manifestations, and in some cases to long-term complications. Diagnosis remains challenging due to overlapping symptoms with other conditions, the variable sensitivity of serological testing, and differences in <em>Borrelia</em> species across geographic regions. While antibiotic therapy is generally effective, a subset of patients continues to experience fatigue, musculoskeletal pain, or cognitive impairment after treatment, a condition referred to as post-treatment Lyme disease syndrome (PTLDS). The pathogenesis of PTLDS remains unclear, and current evidence does not support prolonged antibiotic therapy, highlighting the need for improved biomarkers, better understanding of host-pathogen interactions, and new therapeutic strategies. Preventive measures such as tick avoidance, protective clothing, and repellents remain central to reducing disease incidence, while renewed interest in vaccine development offers hope for long-term prevention. This review summarizes current knowledge of Lyme disease, with a focus on clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment, while highlighting areas where future research is most urgently needed.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":39211,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Microbiology Newsletter","volume":"54 ","pages":"Pages 7-13"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145736912","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
