Chronic lymphadenopathy caused by a Brazilian strain of Bartonella henselae

Chronic lymphadenopathy caused by a Brazilian strain of Bartonella henselae

ABSTRACT Bartonella henselae is a relevant causative agent of bartonelloses in humans. We described an immunocompetent patient with clinical manifestation of chronic cervical lymphadenopathy after a cat-scratch in her forearm. This case shows B. henselae infection persistence even after prolonged antibiotic treatment.
