Blepharitis
The case is presented of a 3-year-old girl with an erythematous oedematous plaque associated with blepharitis, and chalazion in the right upper eyelid. She received empirical treatment with topical corticosteroids, as well as an antifungal and antibiotic, without observing any improvement. The culture of the eyelid[…][ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Syphilis
Three genera of spirochetes cause human infection: Treponema, which causes syphilis, yaws, and pinta The particular spirochete responsible for syphilis is Treponema pallidum[emedicine.medscape.com]
Endarteritis is caused by the binding of spirochetes to endothelial cells, mediated by host fibronectin molecules bound to the surface of the spirochetes.[emedicine.medscape.com]
If the spirochete invades the CNS, syphilitic meningitis results.[emedicine.medscape.com]
Erythema Chronicum Migrans
The isolated spirochete is immunologically related to the Ixodes dammini spirochete, Borrelia duttoni, and Treponema pallidum.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Spirochetes were identified by light microscopy with Steiner silver stain.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The findings are in agreement with spirochetal etiology in ECMA.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

To determine whether the Lyme disease spirochete Borrelia lusitaniae is associated with lizards, we compared the prevalence and genospecies of spirochetes present in rodent[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
In most infected ticks, spirochetal development was found to be limited to the midgut.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Lyme Carditis
Fatal Lyme carditis caused by the spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi rarely is identified.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Lyme disease is a tick-borne spirochetal infection that may involve heart.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
A structure compatible with a spirochetal organism was demonstrated in one biopsy specimen.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Lyme Meningoencephalitis
Syphilis, the ultimate organ system spirochete, is a cousin to Lyme disease spirochetes, and they are transmitted differently.[guardianlv.com]
