Q fever is a zoonotic infectious disease caused by the Coxiella burnetii bacterium. It is an obligate intracellular pathogen with a high infection capacity that proliferates exclusively in an acidified medium, forming a lysosome-like vacuole. It presents

Q fever is a zoonosis with many manifestations. The most common clinical presentation is an influenza-like illness with varying degrees of pneumonia and hepatitis. Although acute disease is usually self-limiting, people do occasionally die from this condition. Endocarditis is the most frequent chronic presentation.

Q fever is a zoonotic disease found throughout the world. It is caused by the intracellular gram-negative bacterium Coxiella burnetii. Infection by C. burnetii occurs primarily by inhalation of the aerosolized bacteria from birthing animals or contaminated dust. The bacterium is very resistant to drying and heat, and is considered highly endemic in the

Q fever is a widespread disease caused by the rickettsia Coxiella burnetii, an obligate intracellular bacteria which man usually acquires through the inhalation of infected dust from subclinically infected animals. Q fever may be acute or chronic. The chronic form mostly presents as endocarditis, which is difficult to diagnose and may ultimately be ...

Coxiella burnetii, the agent of Q fever, produces a variety of clinical syndromes. The most frequent and serious chronic presentation is endocarditis, which presents unspecifically as a blood-culture negative endocarditis. It occurs almost exclusively in patients who have pre-existing valvular disease or who are immunocompromised.

Despite a worldwide distribution of Coxiella burnetii, only single cases of Q fever endocarditis have been reported outside Great Britain and Australia. We present 10 patients; five were female, only four had a history of environmental exposure, and the mitral valve was involved as commonly as the aortic stenosis, and three patients had a prosthetic ...

Encephalitis is a rare but documented complication of acute Q fever. We report here the case of a 48-year-old lady who presented with an acute illness characterised by influenza-like symptoms, pneumonia and neurological disturbance but in whom the serology was suggestive of chronic rather than acute Q fever.

Abstract Q fever is a wide spread illness affecting wild and domestic animals and man. The etiological agent, Coxiella burnetii, has both a wild life and domestic animal cycle. In mammals infection localizes to the endometrium and the mammary glands.

Q fever endocarditis is described in a man aged 48 years, known to have had a rheumatic fever-like illness in 1960. He had evidence of aortic valve disease when seen with mumps infection in 1963. He was again seen in 1966 with suspected subacute bacterial endocarditis, but later, Q fever infection was shown to be present by serological tests.
