摘要
During the past 2 years, we identified live Bartonella henselae in the primary inoculation sites of 3 patients after a cat scratch Although our data are preliminary we report that a cutaneous swab of the skin lesion from a patient in the early stage of cat-scratch disease can be useful for diagnosis of the infection
