Journal Article
Bartonella quintana endocarditis in a child from Northern Manitoba, Canada
2022
Overview
We describe a case of Bartonella quintana endocarditis in an 11-year-old child from Northern Manitoba, Canada. This case demonstrates the neglected endemicity of B . quintana in Northern Canada and highlights the need for improved case finding and elucidation of specific risk factors for B . quintana infection in the Canadian North. Considering B . quintana ’s predominant transmission via body lice ectoparasitosis, we hypothesize that B . quintana ’s endemicity in Northern Canada is linked to inadequate access to suitable housing and running water among remote communities in the Canadian North.
