ABSTRACT

Brucellosis is a serious, multisystemic zoonotic disease, which is continuing to be endemic in the certain religions of the world. Because the signs and symptoms of the disease are not specific, the disease usually causes delay in the diagnosis and treatment. Every system can be affected in the body, but the musculoskeletal and osteoarticular systems are the most affected. Pulmonary involvement is rare but a serious complication. In this article we report a brucellosis case with the literature data, which was clinically and radiographically presented only with pneumonia. The diagnosis was confirmed by hemoculture and serologic tests.
