Rickettsia sibirica mongolitimonae infection in a woman travelling from Cameroon: a case report and review of the literature.

Rickettsia sibirica mongolitimonae is now a well-known cause of human rickettsial infection, with 52 reported cases, including 47 in southern Europe and one in South Africa. We report the first case of R. sibirica mongolitimonae in Central Africa, likely a sentinel case for a more common disease than originally suspected. © International Society of Travel Medicine, 2017.
