Culture Negative Endocarditis Caused By Bartonella Henselae in A Child With Congenital Heart Disease
The Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 09/18/09
Das BB et al. – Serologic studies and polymerase chain reaction testing of resected homograft valvular tissue provided evidence of Bartonella henselae as the etiology. B. henselae can cause endocarditis in children, particularly those with underlying valvular disease. Serologic testing for B. henselae should be considered in children with culture–negative endocarditis.
