“…15,62,63 In human endocarditis patients, administration of aminoglycosides at the time of initial diagnosis improves prognosis and decreases morbidity and hospitalization duration. 65 If seroreactive at the time of initial diagnosis, serum antibody titres decrease rapidly (3-6 months) and are generally no longer detectable in cats and dogs that recover following antimicrobial therapy. 3 Interestingly, seronegative animals with a history of chronic illnesses (presumably chronic Bartonella infection) can seroconvert within days to weeks after initiating antibiotic treatment, thereby providing support for a diagnosis of bartonellosis.…”

“…La gravedad y extensión del compromiso con el que se presenta la enfermedad, así como la respuesta patológica del organismo, difieren según el estado de inmunidad del hospedero 3,7 . La enfermedad por arañazo de gato es la manifestación más típica de la infección por B. henselae…”

“…Las bacterias del género Bartonella son susceptibles in vitro a varios antimicrobianos incluidos penicilinas, cefalosporinas, aminoglucósidos, cloranfenicol, tetraciclinas, macrólidos, rifampicina, fluoroquinolonas y cotrimoxazol. Existe discordancia entre la sensibilidad in vitro y la utilidad clínica de los diferentes antimicrobianos, posiblemente explicada por la ubicación intracelular de la bacteria 1,3,7,23,30 . Frente a las infecciones graves se recomienda utilizar dos antimicrobianos con diferentes mecanismos de acción para lograr una mejor erradicación 7 , fue por esto que nuestra paciente se trató con ceftriaxona y rifampicina 31 .…”
