Abstract:Tick bites are known to induce a variety of inflammatory reaction patterns. Here, we present a novel case of medium-vessel vasculitis as a localized response to a known tick bite. It is important to recognize the histology associated with a tick bite response to prevent misdiagnosis and potential overtreatment of a vasculitic condition.
