Resumo: Q fever is an ubiquitous zoonosis caused by Coxiella burnetii, an intracellular bacterium that can produce acute or chronic infections in humans. These forms are characterized by different evolution, serological profile and treatment that must be very long to achieve a cure in chronic forms. However, the serological profile for diagnosis and the real value of serology for predicting outcome are controversial, and management dilemmas for many patients with Q fever infection are continuously emerging. In this case report, we present a 20-year-old man from Nicaragua who worked as a farmer with a culture-negative infective endocarditis who presented with a mycotic aneurysm. The present report reviews the clinical presentation and diagnosis of Q fever IE.
