A rare bacterial infectious disease characterized by development of endothelial cell-derived, blood-filled tumors on the surface of the skin during the chronic phase of infection with <i>Bartonella bacilliformis</i>. The lesions can persist for months to years and may cause pain and scarring due to ulceration. They are classified as miliary (multiple red papules of <3 mm in diameter), mular (blood-filled nodules), and diffuse (groups of subdermal nodules >5 mm in diameter). Eruptions may be accompanied by fever and malaise, lymphadenopathy, acute bone and joint pains, and headache. Fatality rates during this phase are low.
