In 2016, the United States had 26,203 confirmed and 36,429 probable cases of Lyme disease (LD), a tick-borne bacterial infection. It is estimated, however, that the true incidence approaches 300,000 cases annually. Lyme disease incidence is also dramatically increasing in Canada, carried by migratory birds that are affected by climate change. In this review, Yeung and Baranchuk discuss the diagnosis and treatment of Lyme carditis, an early disseminated manifestation of Lyme disease infection (within 1 to 2 months with a range of 1 to 28 weeks).
