Abstract

Brucellosis is a zoonotic
infection, endemic in Turkey, which can involve many organs and systems.
Brucellosis mainly involves the reticuloendothelial system and the
skeletal-muscle system. Although skeletal-muscle system involvement is the most
common complication of Brucellosis, paravertebral abscess associated with
epidural abscess in patients with Brucellosis is rather uncommon. This article
presents the case of a 52-year-old male patient that suffered  epiduraland paravertebral abscess due to
Brucellosis, and received surgical and antimicrobial treatment, followed by a
literature review.

Abstract

Bruselloz
pek çok organ ve sistemi tutabilen Türkiye’de endemik olarak görülebilen zoonotik
bir infeksiyondur. Brusellozun başlıca tutulum yaptığı sistemler
retiküloendoteliyal sistem ve iskelet-kas sistemidir. İskelet- kas sistemi
tutulumu brusellozun en yaygın komplikasyonu olmasına rağmen, brusellozlu
hastalarda paravertebral apse ve epidural apse birlikteliği oldukça nadirdir.
Bu yazıda, bruselloza bağlı olarak epidural ve paravertebral apse gelişen,
cerrahi ve antimikrobiyal tedavi uygulanan 52 yaşında bir erkek hasta sunularak
literatür gözden geçirilmiştir.
