Infective Endocarditis Due to Q Fever From a Tick Bite: A Case Report.

Infection from Coxiella burnetti causes Q fever that manifests with vague symptoms. We report a case of an individual admitted to the hospital with recurrent fevers with a history of multiple tick bites. Further workup revealed examination and laboratory findings consistent with Q fever endocarditis. Fevers resolved with doxycycline and hydroxychloroquine. Our case highlights that suspicion for Q fever should be maintained in patients presenting to the hospital with fevers of unknown origin for prompt recognition and appropriate treatment.
