Bartonella Infections↗

[Bartonella hensalae encephalopathy].

INTRODUCTION: Bartonella hensalae is a poorly known cause of encephalopathy in young subjects. OBSERVATION: A 17 year-old adolescent was admitted in a state of emergency because of frequent convulsive seizures and inter-critical drowsiness. The diagnosis of encephalopathy was made on the association of these clinical signs and electro-encephalographic abnormalities. The presence of a cat in his home, a right axillary lymph node that had appeared in a context of fever, and positive serological kinetics related this encephalopathy to a bartonellosis. The course was good. DISCUSSION: Diagnosis of a Bartonella hensalae encephalopathy is based on a range of anamnesic, clinical and microbiological arguments. The potential interest of antibiotic therapy and its modalities remains to be established.

Failure to respond to appropriate therapy should suggest abscess formation, and prompt intervention is required. Any diagnosis of mastitis in a patient who is not lactating should be viewed with suspicion. Although several benign and non-life-threatening conditions have been discussed herein, inflammatory breast cancer must always be considered.
