摘要：
Scrub typhus is a zoonotic disease caused by Orientia tsutsugamushi, which is transmitted by larval trombiculid mites. Due to nonspecific clinical presentation, scrub typhus is grossly underdiagnosed in pregnant women, fetuses and neonates. Here, we present a congenital infection case and hope to provide more insight into this disease.
