Q fever endocarditis masquerading as Mixed cryoglobulinemia type II. A case report and review of the literature.
Rafailidis PI, Dourakis SP, Fourlas CA.
BMC Infect Dis. 2006;6:32.
As transesophageal echocardiograms are usually normal and blood cultures are usually negative in Q fever endocarditis, many of the manifestations (fever, rash, glomerulonephritis/evidence of renal disease, low serum C4 complement component, presence of mixed type II cryoglobulin, constitutional symptoms as arthralgias and fatigue) can be attributed to Mixed cryoglobulinemia type II per se.
