  • Title: Isolation of Bartonella henselae DNA from the peripheral blood of a patient with cat scratch disease up to 4 months after the cat scratch injury.
    Author: Arvand M, Schäd SG.
    Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 2006 Jun; 44(6):2288-90. PubMed ID: 16757642.
    Abstract:
    We report the case of a girl with cervical lymphadenitis and a persistent primary lesion of cat scratch disease (CSD). Bartonella henselae DNA was isolated from plasma samples collected 3 and 4 months after the cat scratch, indicating that recurrent and long-term shedding of Bartonella DNA into peripheral blood may occur in typical CSD.
