Bartonella vinsonii subsp. berkhoffii, Bartonella henselae or DNA
of both organisms was amplified and sequenced from blood,
enrichment blood cultures or autopsy tissues from four family
members. Historical and microbiological results support perinatal
transmission of Bartonella species in this family.
