Abstract
Cat-scratch disease was initially reported by Parinaud in 1889, when he described three patients with follicular conjunctivitis, regional lymphadenopathy, chronic fever, and previous contact with pets. Though clinically described over 100 years ago, the etiologic agent for cat-scratch disease was only recently identified as Bartonella henselae, in part because of the development of biomolecular techniques allowing for the identification and diagnosis of previously unknown infectious organisms.
