An outbreak of B. bacilliformis was reported in a rural area of the Peruvian Amazon region. The aim of this study was to characterize this outbreak using molecular techniques. Methodology: Fifty-three blood samples from patients diagnosed with Carrion’s disease were analyzed by molecular tools, using both a Bartonella-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and an universal PCR, both based on 16S rRNA gene amplification. Additional water samples from the area were also analyzed. Results: Unexpectedly, the samples were positive only when the universal PCR was used. Although environmental contamination cannot be ruled out, the results showed that Sphingomonas faeni was the possible causative agent of this outbreak, and that water was the most feasible infection source. Conclusions: Diagnosis by clinical criteria or microscopy may lead to misdiagnosis. There is a need to include molecular tools in the routine diagnosis of febrile syndromes, including Carrion’s disease.This study was funded by the Instituto de Salud Carlos III (ISCIII, Spain) (grant number: FI12/00561, which included FEDER funds), by the Spanish Network for the Research in Infectious Diseases (REIPI RD12/0015) and Generalitat de Catalunya, Departament d’Universitats, Recerca i Societat de la Informació (2014 SGR 26) (JR) and by internal funds of the Universidad Peruana de Ciencias Aplicadas (UPC), Lima-Peru (JdV). JR has a fellowship from the program I3, of the ISCIII (grant number: CES11/012). CG has a PhD fellowship of the ISCIII (FI12/00561). MJP has a postdoctoral fellowship from CONCYTEC.
