Infections with the tick-borne bacterium Candidatus Neoehrlichia mikurensis.
Clin Microbiol Infect. 2015 Jul; 21(7):621-30.CM

Abstract

Candidatus Neoehrlichia mikurensis, which has rodents as its natural hosts, is an emerging tick-borne pathogen in Europe and Asia. This intracellular bacterium causes the infectious disease neoehrlichiosis. Immunocompromised patients may contract a severe form of neoehrlichiosis with high fever and vascular/thromboembolic events. As it is not detected with routine culture-based methods, neoehrlichiosis is underdiagnosed.
