No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Cases of encephalitis of varying severity have been described in recent years in eastern France involving tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV). The main objective is to demonstrate the presence of TBEV in Limousin, in patients with a positive Lyme serology, or a neurological picture compatible with TBEV.

Conditions

  • Tick-borne Encephalitis

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

anti-TBEV serology

we will measure by ELISA in microplates the anti-TBEV IgG as well as the anti-TBEV IgM on the sera + in TBEV IgG. We will then send a patient questionnaire with an information note to document the context of this TBEV seropositivity and to eliminate false-positivities (vaccination). Finally, we will perform PCR on CSF if serum positive and CSF available
