摘要

一名 4 岁男孩因发烧和淋巴结病就诊。尽管对疑似淋巴结炎进行了抗生素治疗，但病情改善甚微。淋巴结活检发现了肉芽肿，这引起了对猫抓病（CSD）的怀疑。一个月前，这名男孩曾被一只小猫抓伤。组织的元基因组检测证实了CSD的致病菌鸡巴顿氏菌的存在。将分子诊断工具应用于临床实践对于准确及时地诊断传染病非常重要。

Lymph Node Histology and Metagenomic Sequencing in a child with Cat Scratch Disease.

A 4-year-old boy presented with fever and lymphadenopathy. Despite antibiotic treatment for suspected lymphadenitis, there was minimal improvement. A lymph node biopsy revealed granulomas, raising suspicion of cat scratch disease (CSD). The boy had been scratched by a kitten a month prior. Metagenomic testing of the tissue confirmed the presence of Bartonella henselae, the causative agent of CSD. It is important to incorporate molecular diagnostic tools into clinical practice for precise and timely diagnosis of infectious diseases.
