Abstract
Rickettsia aeschlimannii infection is an emerging human tick-borne disease with only a few recorded cases. We reported a presumable autochthonous case of rickettsiosis in an Italian cattle breeder associated with a Hyalomma marginatum bite. Rickettsia aeschlimannii DNA was detected in both the tick specimen from the patient and the grazing cattle close to his farm.
