Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is a viral disease transmitted by ticks, presenting with neurological symptoms. Prevention through protective measures and vaccination is crucial for at-risk populations.

Area of Science:

Virology
Epidemiology
Neurology

Context:

Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is a Flavivirus infection endemic across Eurasia.
Disease distribution is linked to tick vectors and infected small mammal reservoirs in forest and bush habitats.
Geographical spread spans from Scandinavia to Greece and the Urals.

Purpose:

To summarize the epidemiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis, and prevention of TBE.
To highlight the importance of vaccination for individuals at risk of tick bites.

Summary:

TBE manifests in three phases, including nonspecific symptoms, an afebrile period, and neurological complications like meningitis and meningoencephalitis.
Diagnosis relies on clinical history and detection of specific IgM antibodies in blood or cerebrospinal fluid.

No specific treatment exists; prevention focuses on personal protection and vaccination with inactivated virus vaccines.

Impact:

Informed public health strategies for TBE prevention and control.
Promoted vaccination uptake among high-risk groups, including outdoor workers and recreational users.
Enhanced understanding of TBE's geographical spread and clinical spectrum.
