Bartonella bacteria cause various human diseases, including Oroya fever and cat-scratch disease. Four Bartonella species are significant human pathogens, leading to a range of infections in both healthy and immunocompromised individuals.

Area of Science:

  • Microbiology
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Medical Entomology

Context:

  • Bartonella species are increasingly recognized as significant human pathogens.
  • Four Bartonella species (Bartonella baciliformis, B. henselae, B. quintana, B. elizabethae) are known to cause human infections.
  • These bacteria are transmitted by vectors, primarily fleas and ticks, and can infect various hosts.

Purpose:

  • To review the spectrum of human diseases caused by Bartonella species.
  • To highlight the clinical manifestations and etiological agents of Bartonella infections.
  • To underscore the importance of Bartonella as emerging pathogens.

Summary:

  • Bartonella baciliformis causes Oroya fever and verruga peruana in South America.
  • Bartonella henselae and B. quintana are associated with bacteremic syndromes like relapsing fever, trench fever, and endocarditis.

  • In immunocompromised individuals, particularly HIV-infected patients, B. henselae and B. quintana can cause opportunistic infections such as bacillary angiomatosis and bacillary peliosis hepatis.

    • Impact:

    • Understanding Bartonella-associated diseases is crucial for diagnosis and treatment.
    • Recognition of Bartonella as opportunistic pathogens is vital for managing infections in immunocompromised populations.
    • This review provides a foundation for further research into Bartonella pathogenesis and epidemiology.
