Abstract
The emerging opportunistic pathogen Bartonella henselae has a wide range of clinical presentation, which includes, particularly, bacillary angiomatosis. This non-random pilot survey of outpatients attending HIV clinics in Johannesburg, South Africa, sampled 188 patients, in whom there was a 10% prevalence of Bartonella bacteraemia, as determined by nested polymerase chain reaction.
