A 50-year-old male with left cervical lymphadenopathy visited our hospital. Infectious and lymphomatous diseases were suspected in the patient. Since the patient owned a dog, which often licked the patient's face, Bartonella infection was also suspected. Histopathological examination in the lymph node biopsy revealed the epithelioid granuloma, but B. henselae was not detected from the culture of the lymphnode. B. henselae DNA also was not detected from the lymph node. Since the antibody titer (lgG) to B. henselae showed 1:128 by immunofluorescent antibody technique (IFA), he was serdogicalg diagnosed as cat-scratch disease. 'Cat-scratch disease' is named after cat scratch, however we propose 'B. henselae infection' which is more appropriate since other animals could serve as a cause of infection.
