An Unusual Cutaneous Manifestation in a Patient with Murine Typhus.

Lucas S Blanton¹, Alfred S Lea², Brent C Kelly², David H Walker².

Abstract

Murine typhus is a flea-borne febrile illness caused by Rickettsia typhi. Although often accompanied by rash, an inoculation lesion has not been observed as it is with many tick- and mite-transmitted rickettsioses. We describe a patient with murine typhus and an unusual cutaneous manifestation at the site of rickettsial inoculation. © The American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene.
