Cat scratch disease is a usually harmless infectious disease caused by Bartonella henselae bacteria. These bacteria are transmitted to humans by a cat scratch or bite. Its typical presentation is a self-limiting lymphadenitis of regional lymph nodes, mostly in the neck. The disease is especially prevalent in children and young adults.

Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 1987
In summary, CSD is a relatively common cause of localized lymphadenopathy, with 80 per cent of cases occurring in children. This self-limited infection is caused by a small pleomorphic bacillus that has been identified in ocular granuloma, skin, and lymph node specimens.

Introduction Cat scratch disease (CSD), a regional lymphadenitis affecting those lymph nodes draining dermal and/or conjunctival sites of inoculation, probably is the most common cause of chronic lymphadenopathy among children and adolescents. Adults account for only 10% to 20% of cases.

SUMMARY Cat scratch disease is a self-limiting, infectious disease of man characterized by regional lymphadenopathy following the scratch or bite of a cat. The disease is widespread and affects thousands of people annually. The risk is greatest for children and veterinarians. The etiologic agent, presumably a virus, is unknown.

Cat‐scratch disease has been reported with increasing frequency since its initial description in 1931. It is now recognized as being so prevalent that it probably represents the most common cause of unilateral lymphadenopathy in children, once nonspecific viral diseases and cutaneous infections have been excluded. The cardinal feature of the disease is

Cat-scratch disease is a relatively common benign infection, presumably caused by a virus transmitted through the scratch of a cat. It is estimated that since 1951 more than 1000 cases have been recorded.The most important clinical manifestation is lymphadenitis. Diagnosis is based on positive results of a skin test with cat- scratch antigen; treatment

Oculoglandular Cat-Scratch Disease
Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1960Cat-scratch disease, first described by Debre1and Foshay,2is a disease of unknown etiology, characterized by frequent history of a cat scratch, a local granulomatous lesion, and regional lymphadenopathy which sometimes progresses to suppuration. No bacteria have been isolated, from either the cats or the afflicted persons. Mollaret3was able to transmit

Cat-scratch disease osteomyelitis
Skeletal Radiology, 2003We report on a patient who presented with osteomyelitis of a rib and adjacent abscess as a rare and atypical manifestation of cat-scratch disease. Radiographic findings showed an osteolytic lesion with adjacent mass. Biopsy, serology and polymerase chain reaction technique are essential for the final diagnosis. Prognosis is excellent with full recovery.

To the Editor:— Last year while stationed at an airbase in Thailand, I had occasion to see two children in whom I suspected cat-scratch disease (207:312, 1969). The first was in a boy, age 9, who had awakened at about 4 am one morning in extreme pain. His right axilla was markedly swollen and tender; his temperature was elevated.
