RESULTS:: The histological studies, electron microscopy, and the PCR
analysis confirmed the identification of the bacilli within the involved
tissues. Furthermore, molecular diagnosis by PCR allowed for speciation of
the infecting Bartonella organisms in 6 of the 8 cases and correlated with
the histological findings.
CONCLUSIONS:: The PCR-based
identification of Bartonella correlated well with the results of light
microscopy and TEM and provided a simple and rapid method of diagnosis to
the species level. The molecular analysis may prove to be beneficial in
enhancing the current diagnostic techniques for CSD and bacillary
angiomatosis.
