ABSTRACT

Lyme disease is an emerging pathology in Mexico, producer of painful muscle skeletal either neurotic pain difficult to control. We present the case of a teenager girl who has complex regional pain type II of pelvic limb secondary to it, where it established a multidisciplinary management that finally was controlled with the placement of a spinal cord stimulator. We consider this as an unusual situation in an adolescent, as well as its evolution by 60 months where the literature only was reported in a few cases.
