“…A history of contact with cats, dogs or fleas should be pursued. Multiple diagnostic tests, such as indirect immunofluorescence assay, PCR, blood culture and Warthin-Starry staining of histopathologic specimens, may enhance sensitivity [29] . An accurate diagnosis is important due to the resolution of symptoms with proper antibiotic treatment.…”

“…Specifically, PCR sensitivity with lymph node tissue or aspirates is approximately 30-60% for CSD [91]. Nevertheless, when serology, culture, histology, and molecular techniques yield negative results, it is essential to conduct a thorough evaluation and, whenever feasible, consider combining these diagnostic tests [97].…”
