Bartonellosis - what does this mean
What happens during the disease - bartonellosis
В месте проникновения возбудителя образуется первичный аффект – папула, везикула или пустула. Далее с током лимфы возбудитель проникает в лимфатические узлы – развивается лимфаденопатия. При преодолении лимфатического барьера патоген поступает в кровь – наступает бактериемия. Наиболее чувствительными к бартонеллам являются эритроциты и эндотелиальные клетки сосудов, костный мозг, клапаны сердца. Активное размножение возбудителя в эритроцитах и их разрушение вызывает развитие гемолитической анемии.
При острых процессах в клетках эндотелия преобладают некротические изменения, стенка сосудов инфильтрируется лейкоцитами и макрофагами с образованием гранулем, явления пролиферации выражены незначительно. В слизистых оболочках, коже появляются мелкие кровоизлияния. Для хронического течения бартонеллеза характерно образование новых мелких сосудов с формированием ангиоэндотелиом. При состоятельности системы иммунитета образуются антитела с последующей элиминацией возбудителя. В случае иммунодефицитных состояний происходит хронизация процесса с длительной персистенцией бартонелл в крови. Отсутствие лечения в такой ситуации может привести к летальному исходу. У выздоровевших пациентов формируется стойкий иммунитет.
