Abstract

Abstract With the advent of newer methodologies, it has become possible to detect previously unsuspected pathogens. We wish to present a case of human granulocytic anaplasmosis that was diagnosed using 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing while originally investigating possible culture-negative endocarditis. This case is the first reported in humans from the province of Quebec. A brief review of means of transmission and clinical and laboratory findings as well as treatment is provided.
