Diagnosis is generally performed with serology, which has variable turnaround times, or microbial cell-free DNA (mcfDNA) sequencing, which has a high cost. Therefore, a high index of suspicion is necessary for timely diagnosis and management of these invasive infections. We depict a case series of nine atypical Bartonella infections in children. By highlighting these presentations, their diagnostic testing, and treatment, we emphasize the significance of an elevated index of suspicion of atypical bartonellosis for accurate diagnosis and timely antibiotic management. Our invasive Bartonella cases entail culture-negative subacute endocarditis, osteomyelitis, neuroretinitis, encephalitis, hepatosplenic disease, and lymphadenopathy with splenic involvement.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47045,"journal":{"name":"IDCases","volume":"40 ","pages":"Article e02192"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143593429","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Management of AE in pregnant people presents many challenges including the risk of disease progression due to the immunologic changes in pregnancy and potential teratogenicity of antihelminthic drugs.

After discussion of risks and benefits of continuing with the pregnancy, the decision was made to closely monitor the patient with monthly liver ultrasound exams. Due to potential risk for teratogenicity, she was advised to hold albendazole treatment during first trimester with the understanding that she would restart if lesions formed or enlarged. The patient chose to continue abstaining from albendazole for the entire pregnancy. During the albendazole-free period, no new cystic growths or enlargement of existing cysts were observed in close follow-up. She had an uncomplicated delivery at 39.5 weeks via Cesarean section. Albendazole was restarted following delivery, and due to concerns about infant albendazole exposure, formula feeding was preferred over breastfeeding.</div></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><div>AE poses many management challenges in pregnant people.
