Rickettsial skin disease: uncommon presentations
Clin Dermatol.
2005 Nov-Dec.
Abstract
Rickettsioses occurring worldwide show a significant morbidity and mortality when not properly treated. Early diagnosis is mandatory for better outcome. Clinical symptoms and patient's history are essential, but uncommon presentation of these arthropod-borne diseases may be a challenge.
