“…bacilliformis -endemic area. In this case, vertical transmission was not considered, as the mother did not have a previous Bartonella infection [ 15 ]. More recently, the acquisition of Oroya fever has been described in a chronic myeloid leukemia patient receiving multiple blood and platelet transfusions, one of which was contaminated with B .…”

[7][8][9][10] In this report, a neonatal case of Oroya Fever from a nonendemic coastal area of Peru is presented, and the possible routes of transmission are discussed.…”
