La fiebre manchada por Rickettsia rickettsii (FMRR) es una enfermedad reemergente transmitida en México por las garrapatas Rhipicephalus sanguineus infectadas por la bacteria homónima. Presentamos 3 casos fatales que cumplieron con criterios de compatibilidad para FMRR, y que al tener un resultado positivo para Dengue o Chikungunya no se solicitó prueba confirmatoria para FMRR o se hizo en días de evolución clínica donde es poco probable encontrar elevación de anticuerpos específicos contra la bacteria. Si bien existe una similitud en el cuadro clínico y de laboratorio entre FMRR y padecimientos febriles exantemáticos endémicos en Sonora, hay datos clínicos, de laboratorio y epidemiológicos que podrían guiar al médico clínico a sospechar de la enfermedad, incluso en presencia de una prueba positiva confirmatoria de algún otro padecimiento. Esta serie de casos es una llamada a estructurar protocolos de estudio en pacientes con enfermedades febriles exantemáticas en regiones endémicas de FMRR como Sonora.
