[Secondary normal pressure hydrocephalus. A complication of chronic neuroborreliosis].
    Der Nervenarzt, 1999, Volume: 70, Issue:6

    We report about a 57-year-old patient suffering from the typical symptoms of normal-pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) including gait disturbance, urinary incontinence, and mental deterioration. CSF analysis established the diagnosis of chronic active Lyme neuroborreliosis with lymphocytic pleocytosis and intrathecal Borrelia burgdorferi antibody production. After several weeks of i.v. antibiotic treatment we observed normalization of CSF parameters as well as a clear improvement of clinical symptoms so that surgical shunting was no longer indicated. Interference with subarachnoid CSF flow may be a possible cause of the observed symptomatic NPH in a patient with chronic Lyme neuroborreliosis.

Lyme neuroborreliosis disguised as normal pressure hydrocephalus.
    Neurology, 1996, Volume: 46, Issue:6

    A 74-year-old woman presented with gait impairment, urinary incontinence, and dementia. She showed lymphocytic CSF pleocytosis and pronounced intrathecal Borrelia burgdorferi antibody production, indicating active Lyme neuroborreliosis. The syndrome of normal-pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) fully remitted after ceftriaxone treatment. Lyme neuroborreliosis may cause NPH by interfering with subarachnoid CSF flow.
