Borrelial fasciitis: as yet insufficient proof for a distinct entity.

Pieternella Maria Houtman¹, Tim L Jansen, Jan Weel, Joris K A Grond.

Abstract

The clinical picture of diffuse fasciitis is described in three male patients, living in a highly Borreliosis endemic region. We discuss the likelihood of a causal relationship with a Borrelia infection.
