«QUERY FEVER»: DOWN THE LINE EIGHTY YEARS

Abstract

The review article coniders modern information on etiology, epidemiology of Q-fever, pathogenetic mechanisms promoting Coxiella burnetii bacteria to wear down the protective systems of the macroorganism and contribute to the development of the chronic course of the disease. Clinical manifestations of Q-fever in acute and chronic forms are considered in detail, problems of early diagnosis and treatment tactics are discussed.
