“…1,2,9 These include most commonly Parinaud oculoglandular syndrome—a granulomatous conjunctivitis associated with regional preauricular/submandibular lymphadenopathy—and neuroretinitis—a clinical entity of optic nerve and retinal inflammation classically manifesting with optic disc edema and “star-like” exudates in the macula. 1,4,10,11 Less commonly associated findings include uveitis, retinal vasculitis, serous retinal detachment, and retinal vascular occlusion. 1,11 Patients are usually symptomatic with decreased central visual acuity.…”

“…Furthermore, the pathogen B. quintana was confirmed in clothing lice collected from homeless people from Bogotá, D.C. [ 92 ]. Although no confirmed cases of B. henselae infection have been reported to date, clinical cases compatible with cat-scratch disease in young children have been reported in Medellin, Antioquia department [ 114 ], and in Cali, Valle del Cauca department [ 115 ], as well as a Parinaud’s oculoglandular syndrome in a hospital in Medellin, Antioquia ( Figure 1 F) [ 116 ]. These bacteria could be circulating in domestic animals; however, these data remain unknown, as only one study has evidenced exposure to Bartonella spp.…”

In Colombia, tropical febrile illnesses represent one of the most important causes of clinical attention. Febrile illnesses in the tropics are mainly zoonotic and have a broad etiology. The Colombian surveillance system monitors some notifiable diseases. However, several etiologies are not monitored by this system. In the present review, we describe eleven different etiologies of zoonotic tropical febrile illnesses that are not monitored by the Colombian surveillance system but have scientific, historical, and contemporary data that confirm or suggest their presence in different regions of the country: Anaplasma, Arenavirus, Bartonella, relapsing fever group Borrelia, Coxiella burnetii, Ehrlichia, Hantavirus, Mayaro virus, Orientia, Oropouche virus, and Rickettsia. These could generate a risk for the local population, travelers, and immigrants, due to which they should be included in the mandatory notification system, considering their importance for Colombian public health.

“…A la hembra del mosquito phlebotomo-Lutzomyia spp. en 1913 Charles Tonwosend le descubrió su condición de vector (32) Entre los años 2011 y 2018 fueron publicados cuatro casos de enfermedad por arañazo de gato, dos de ellos con presentación sistémica y uno con síndrome oculoglandular de Parinaud, atendidos en hospitales colombianos, siendo tres del sexo masculino y con edades entre dos y seis años (41)(42)(43)(44). La aproximación diagnóstica fue realizada a través de inmunofluorescencia indirecta y/o tinción de Warthin-Starry a partir de muestras biopsiadas.…”

FRAGMENTO Bartonelosis por Bartonella bacilliformis. A través del tiempo la bartonelosis causada por Bartonella bacilliformis ha recibido un sinnúmero de nombres, entre los que se destacan enfermedad de Carrión, fiebre maligna verrucosa, fiebre maligna de las quebradas, fiebre grave de Carrión, fiebre verrucosa del Guáitara, fiebre aguda verrugosa, verruga andícola, verruga del sapo, verruga de quinua, verruga blanda, verruga de Castilla, verruga nodular, botón de los Andes, verruga de Crapaud, verruga peruana, verruga hemorrágica peruana, fiebre de Oroya, infección por B. bacilliformis (1). B. bacilliformis es una bacteria aeróbica, pleomórfica y Gram negativa que vive dentro del sistema reticuloendotelial y que ataca a los eritrocitos. Esta bacteria es una de las 45 especies identificadas hoy en día como pertenecientes a la familia Bartonellaceae, y de la que hacen parte, como causales de enfermedades humanas, además de diez especies más, la Bartonella henselae, responsable de la enfermedad por arañazo de gato, y transmitida de gato a gato por la pulga Ctenocephalides felis, y la Bartonella quintana, responsable de la fiebre de las trincheras, transmitida por el piojo de las ropas Pediculus humanus humanus, y en la que los humanos son el único reservorio (2).
