Presentation
We documented whether there was a preoperative radiculopathy present and whether a radiculopathy was present postoperative. We reviewed radiographic postoperative imaging to establish a structural cause for any radiculopathy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Herein we present a unique case of Lyme disease with neurologic manifestations including both radiculitis and meningitis due to its atypical and challenging clinical presentation and management with updated literature review. [pagepress.org]

Prognosis
Outlook (Prognosis) Most neuralgias are not life threatening and are not signs of other life-threatening disorders. However, pain can be severe. [swvabrain.com]
