Bartonella henselae, the etiologic agent of cat-scratch disease, rarely causes back pain and is considered to be transmitted through animal scratches and bites. Here we report a cat-scratch disease case possibly with an unusual route of transmission. The patient was a 32-year-old man, and he was working as a veterinarian in a private veterinary clinic. He sought for clinical help because of unknown fever and persistent back pain for at least a month after an accidental needle puncture. Through serological testing and molecular identifications, this clinical case was confirmed to be caused by B. henselae.
汉赛巴尔通体，即引起猫抓病的病原体，很少引起背痛，被认为是通过动物抓挠和咬伤传播的。在此，我们报告了一例可能通过不常见途径传播的猫抓病病例。患者为 32 岁男性，在一家私人兽医诊所担任兽医。在一次意外的针刺伤后，他出现不明原因的发热和持续背痛至少一个月，因此来就诊。通过血清学检测和分子鉴定，该临床病例被确认为汉赛巴尔通体引起的。
