Catscratch disease[CSD] is a self limited lymphadenitis caused by Bartonella Henselae and transmitted by cats. This typically affects children and young adults. Immunosuppression is considered as a risk factor for severe and atypical forms of the disease. We are reporting such a case of Catscratch disease in a patient with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus while receiving immunosupressant therapy.
