Bacillary angiomatosis is a rare infectious disease usually occuring in immunodeficient patients with a history of contact with cats. It is characterized by cutaneous angiomatous lesions and systemic involvement may occur. There are only a few case reports about bacillary angiomatosis in immunocompetent individuals. We report a 23-year-old immunocompetent man without history of contact with cats, whose diagnose was
based on the demonstration of bacilli in histopathological sections stained with the reticulin silver dye.

Keywords: Bacillary angiomatosis, epithelioid angiomatosis, immunocompetent, HIV seronegative
