Title
Bartonella henselae: First reported isolate in a human in Thailand
Abstract
This is the first reported case of bacillary angiomatosis associated with Bartonella henselae in Thailand. The clinical, pathological, and microbiological findings are presented. The bacterium was isolated from a biopsy of skin lesions obtained on admission and identified by cellular morphology, characteristics of colonies on chocolate agar, extensive biochemical tests and 16S ribosomal DNA sequencing.
