We report a case of intestinal spirochaetosis. The bacteria were seen by light microscopy and reacted in an indirect immunofluorescence test on the biopsy material with serum with high levels of IgG antibodies against Borrelia burgdorferi. The patient's own serum had no detectable antibody activity against the bacteria. No inflammatory response was observed. Aspects of these findings are discussed.
