Abstract

Brucellosis is a common zoonotic disease, which is particularly common in the Mediterranean countries. It is a well-documented cause of fever of unknown origin with varied and nonspecific symptoms, and Brucella organisms may localize in almost any organ. Spondylitis is considered one of the most serious refractory complications. We describe the case of a 43-year-old shepherd who was admitted due to severe low back pain and discuss the diagnostic process and treatment challenge of spondylitis due to Brucella infection.
