    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Borrelia burgdorferi specific DNA has been detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in different specimens of patients with Lyme disease (LD). The aim of the present study is to evaluate PCR-diagnostic of urine specimens regarding rheumatologic diagnosis of Lyme disease. Urine specimens of 77 patients (LD, n=34; undifferentiated arthritis (UA), n=25; arthralgia/myalgia (AM), n=18) and 15 controls were investigated. Flagellin gene (60 specimens) or OspA-plasmid (32 specimens) were used as targets. Sensitivity of the flagellin-nested-PCR was 27%, by OspA-nested-PCR only one positive PCR result was found. Despite of low sensitivity PCR enabled the correct diagnosis of LD in two patients classified as UA. Therefore, PCR can give valuable hints in single cases if LD is clinically suspected.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Borrelia burgdorferi– spezifische DNA läßt sich mittels Polymerase-Kettenreaktion (PCR) in verschiedenen Untersuchungsmaterialien von Patienten mit einer Lyme-Borreliose (LB) nachweisen. Ziel der vorliegenden Untersuchung ist es, den Wert der PCR-Untersuchungen von Urin im Hinblick auf die rheumatologische Diagnostik der Lyme-Borreliose zu überprüfen. Von 77 Patienten (LB n=34, undifferenzierte Arthritis (UA) n=25, Arthralgien/Myalgien (AM) n=18) und 15 Kontrollpersonen wurden Urinproben untersucht. Als Zielsequenzen dienten Flagellin-Gen (60 Proben) oder OspA-Plasmid (32 Proben). Es fand sich eine Sensitivität der Flagellin-nested-PCR von 27%, mittels OspA-nested-PCR wurde dagegen nur ein positiver Befund erhoben. Trotz formal niedriger Sensitivität konnte bei 2 Patienten mit einer UA erst durch die PCR die Diagnose LB gesichert werden. In Einzelfällen bietet die PCR somit diagnostisch wertvolle Hinweise bei klinischem Verdacht auf eine LB.
