    AbstractCat scratch disease (CSD) is usually a benign, self-limited regional lymphadenopathy, caused by Bartonella henselae. However, systemic complications have been described. We report on 2 children who developed neurological symptoms of acute encephalitis or neuroretinitis. Cat scratch disease should be suspected when neurological symptoms of undetermined cause occur in children, whether or not anamnesis is significant.Copyright © 2012 Elsevier Masson SAS.
