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. This is also a common lyme disease/Borrelia co
infection. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2884525/
