  • Title: Chronic cryptic Q-fever infection of the heart.
    Author: Willey RF, Matthews MB, Peutherer JF, Marmion BP.
    Journal: Lancet; 1979 Aug 11; 2(8137):270-2. PubMed ID: 88607.
    Abstract:
    Evidence of chronic Coxiella burneti infection of the heart, a disease previously considered peculiar to patients with valvular heart-disease, was found in a patient during routine serological tests before resection of a ventricular aneurysm and also by isolation of the rickettsia from the resected tissue. The patient had no symptoms or signs of Q-fever endocarditis and none of the laboratory evidence usually associated with it.
