초록
Bartonella henselae causes cat-scratch disease, bacteremia, and various focal infections. Despite the worldwide occurrenceof B. henselae infections, reports in humans are rare in Korea. The clinical manifestation of all 5 previously reported cases waslymphadenopathy. Herein, we report a case of bacteremia in a woman who presented with prolonged fever. B. henselae wasisolated from a blood specimen by cell culture. Conventional polymerase chain reaction amplification and sequencing of the16S-23S rRNA intergenic space region confirmed the isolate to be B. henselae . The patient had no underlying immunocompromisingconditions and no recent exposure to animals. She was successfully managed with a combination of doxycycline andhydroxychloroquine.
