In the differential diagnosis of Lyme disease and with regard to coinfection, the importance of yersiniosis is primarily based on the disease manifestation of a so- called reactive arthritis. As in Chlamydia infections and probably also in the bartonellosis, the arthritis is very probably the consequence of a chronic persistent infection [163, 164]. Since the so-called reactive arthritis in yersiniosis occasionally also occurs in the scope of Reiter's triad, i.e. in connection with urethritis and uveitis, the autoimmune processes are to be discussed with the pathophysiology. The thyroiditis which frequently occurs in yersiniosis and which is very probably expression of an autoimmune phenomenon as in LD is indicative of such an association. The anamnestic research subsequent to the early phase of yersiniosis makes an important contribution to the recognition of chronic yersiniosis. The early phase of yersiniosis is essentially characterized by two disease manifestations: - Gradually beginning gastroenteritis - Pharyngitis The infection data and symptomatology of yersiniosis are compiled in Table 16. Table 16 Yersiniosis (Y. enterocolitica) Infection data, symptomatology Pathogen: - Yersinia enterocolitica Transmission: - Fecal-oral Reservoir: - Various vertebrates Early phase: - Gradual development of gastroenteritis (for about one week) - Gastroenteritis 26
- Pharyngitis - Complications due to inflammation of the intestinal wall - Mesenteric lymphadenopathy - Pathogen localization in lymphatic tissue of the pharyngeal wall - Pathogen detection by means of a throat swab - Excretor (months after the abatement of the gastroenteritis 27
