Resumen
ALVAREZ VILLACAMPA, M.B. et al. Mediterranean spotted fever: a case report. Sanid. Mil. [online]. 2014, vol.70, n.3, pp.185-187. ISSN 1887-8571. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S1887-85712014000300007.
Typical symptoms of Mediterranean spotted fever (FBM) include fever, generalized rash and the presence of a black eschar that may go unnoticed. Usually follows a benign course, but occasionally serious complications occur. Although the disease was first described a century ago, a few questions about the actual vector and reservoir of the disease remain unclear. We present a typical case of FBM and propose a hypothesis about the mode of transmission of Rickettsia in our patient.
