Tick-borne diseases are rare in our environment. We describe a case of tick-borne lymphadenopathy (TIBOLA), an emergent disease caused by Rickettsia slovaca. The patients have a necrotic eschar on the scalp, at the site of a bite, fever and multiple occipital and/or cervical lymphadenopathies. The medium duration of incubation since the bite is seven days. In the case of a patient with cervical adenitis and history of tick bite and/or eschar scalp, the diagnosis of TIBOLA is the most common.
