Ticks are a vector and often a reservoir of viral and bacterial diseases. A person usually gets infected after the infestation of an infected tick or its developmental stage as a random link in its life cycle. Due to the geographical conditions in the Czech Republic, these diseases have a epidemiological significance and impact on morbidity. The communication subject describes infections, their ep idemiology, clinical picture, and diagnostics, focusing on the specifics of childhood in our conditions. The subject of a separate communication is Lyme borreliosis, the most common of these presented diseases.

Keywords: klíšťová encefalitida, tularemie, klíště, ehrlichióza, babesióza, diagnostika, léčba, dětský věk
