    AbstractWe report on the radiological abnormalities of bones and joints in Dutch patients suffering from Lyme borreliosis presenting with acrodermatitis chronica atrophicans (A.C.A.). In a highly endemic area of the Netherlands rheumatic complaints were mentioned by 26 out of 60 patients suffering from a late stage of Lyme disease. Radiological findings in our group of patients were subluxation of the toe joint and periostitis of the bones of the lower limb.
