Tularemia is a rare infectious disease, due to Francisella tularensis, a virulent bacterium transmitted by a carrier insect (essentially ticks) or by the meat of an infected animal (generally hares). We report 3 cases that occurred in the same family, showing the various symptoms of this disease. Revealing head and neck manifestations may mislead diagnosis.
兔热病是一种罕见的传染病，由土拉弗朗西斯菌引起，这是一种通过携带病菌的昆虫（主要是蜱虫）或受感染动物的肉（通常是野兔）传播的剧毒细菌。我们报告了发生在同一家庭的3例病例，展示了这种疾病的各种症状。以头颈部表现为首发症状可能会误导诊断。
