| http://www.w3.org/ns/prov#value | - Lyme disease is a recently described inflammatory disorder characterized by the appearance of a unique skin lesion, erythema chronicum migrans, recurrent attacks of arthritis, and occasional involvement of the heart and nervous system.1 Although the etiologic agent has not been determined, epidemiologic observations suggest that this disease is transmitted by a tick bite, primarily Ixodes dammini.
