[Diagnostics of cat scratch disease and present methods of bartonellosis recognition--a case report].

Bartonella infections including cat scratch disease (CSD) is a group of infectious diseases which are diagnosed sporadically. Because of this fact the number of CSD cases in Poland is underestimated and their incidence is markedly lower in comparison to other European countries. The aim of our report is to present various diagnostic methods and possibilities on the basis of two cases with symptoms of CSD. The efficiency of specific Bartonella antibiotic therapy is also discussed.
