    AbstractTick bite fever (boutonneuse fever) is endemic in India, Africa and especially the Mediterranean countries. It is occasionally "imported" into central European countries by tourists. The exanthematic disease is caused by infection with Rickettsia conori, which is usually transmitted by the brown dog tick. A typical primary lesion at the site of the tick's bite is an important diagnostic hint. The treatment of choice are tetracyclines.
