dc.description.abstract | Bartonella henselae infection is a prevalent illness in Chile. It presents generally as a cat scratch disease or
as a prolonged fever syndrome. There are atypical manifestations, which include central nervous system, bone,
cardiac and hepato-esplenic compromised. We present an adolescent case with a history of fever, vomiting and
ataxia, whose diagnosis was a central nervous system infection by Bartonella henselae associated with a choroid
plexus papilloma. This case corresponds to an unusual presentation, with a challenging diagnosis. It is controversial
whether to treat this patient, which antimicrobial is the right choice and how long the treatment should be. | |
