    Abstract:
    117 cases of clinically manifest tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) in Styria, Austria, the years 1987 to 1990 are reported in terms relevant anamnestic data, clinical findings (meningitis, meningoencephalitis, meningoradiculitis) and course. The geographic distribution corresponds to the known endemic areas for TBE in Styria. We found a significant decrease of incidence. The prognosis of the disease was benign in general; more than 80% ran a course free from complications. A small proportion (5%), however, suffer from severe residual handicap. These patients are subsumed under the group of meningo-radiculitides. Two patients (1.8%) acquired the disease despite having been vaccinated regularly.
