Resumo: | Cat-Scratch Disease (CSD) is a benign lymphadenitis that may progress to severe or recurrent forms, and it is occasionally associated with morbidity. Between January of 1998 and March of 1999, forty-three suspected CSD patients were assessed in the Hospital Cayetano Heredia and the Instituto de Salud del Niño, in Lima, Peru. Twelve patients had a confirmed diagnosis, 8 of whom were women, and the mean age was 10 years old. The majority (53%) of the cases were encountered in the summer. All patients reported having had contact with cats. Fever, malaise, lymphadenopathy and skin lesions were the most frequent clinical features. Twelve patients had indirect immunofluorescence antibody test titers of between 1/50 and 1/800 for Bartonella henselae and Bartonella clarridgeiae. Two lymph node biopsies were histologically compatible with CSD. No positive blood cultures could be obtained. This is the first Peruvian prospective study able to identify B. henselae and B. clarridgeiae in pediatric patients. |

A doença da arranhadura do gato é descrita como uma linfadenite benigna que pode progredir para formas recorrentes ou severas, sendo isto ocassionalmente associado com morbidade. Entre janeiro de 1998 e março de 1999, 43 pacientes foram admitidos no Hospital Cayetano Heredia e no Instituto de Salud del Niño, em Lima -Peru. Doze pacientes tiveram o diagnóstico confirmado, sendo 8 mulheres, com uma média de idade de 10 anos. A maioria (53,3%) dos casos foram recrutados no verão. Todos os pacientes relataram ter contato com gatos. Febre, mal-estar, linfadenopatia e lesões cutâneas foram as características mais freqüentes. Doze pacientes tiveram títulos de imunofluorescência indireta (IFI) entre 1/50 e 1/800 para Bartonella henselae e Bartonella clarridgeiae. Duas biópsias de linfonodos foram descritas como típicas para doença da arranhadura do gato. Nenhuma hemocultura se mostrou positiva. Este é o primeiro estudo peruano prospectivo que foi capaz de identificar Bartonella henselae e Bartonella clarridgeiae em pacientes pediátricos. Universidade de São Paulo.
