Diagnosis of Carrion’s Disease by Direct Blood PCR in Thin Blood Smear Negative Samples
Bartonella bacilliformis is the etiologic agent of Carrion's disease. This disease has two well established phases, the most relevant being the so called Oroya Fever, in which B. bacilliformis infect the erythrocytes resulting in severe anemia and transient immunosuppression, with a high lethal...
