摘要
This article reviews pediatric Lyme disease in the United States. The agent of Lyme disease includes three pathogenic species (Borrelia burgdorferi, B afzelii, and B garinii), but only B. burgdorferi strains are found in the United States. The article's discussion is limited to the single species B burgdorferi.
