  • Title: Q fever as a cause of pure sensory polyneuropathy -- the six-year itch: a follow-up of an indigenous Swedish case.
    Author: Rustscheff S.
    Journal: Scand J Infect Dis; 2005; 37(11-12):949-50. PubMed ID: 16308243.
    Abstract:
    Q fever is common worldwide but extremely rare as a cause of clinical disease in Sweden. Complications such as meningitis and Guillain-Barré syndrome are not uncommon. Chronic polyneuropathy caused by Q fever has until now never been reported in the English-speaking medical community. The first truly indigenous case of clinical Q fever in Sweden has previously been reported by us in this journal. The same patient also developed a pure sensory polyneuropathy.
