摘要

Louse-borne relapsing fever are caused by Bartonella quintana and Borrelia recurrentis. B. recurrentis enters a susceptible man via mucous membranes and then invades the blood stream. There is no animal reservoir. Bartonella quintana caused angiostoma, endocarditis and lymphadenopathy. Acinetobacter baumannii has been added to the list of LBRF.
