Abstract

To date there has been no association of ascites, hearing loss and pancytopenia in brucellosis in the literature. A 25-year-old female patient was hospitalized with fever, hearing loss, ascites and pancytopenia. Cultures from bone marrow and ascites yielded growth of Brucella melitensis and Brucella standard tube agglutination was found to be positive at a titer of 1/1280. The patient completely recovered by the sixth week following combined antibacterial treatment of ciprofloxacin, rifampin and doxychline.

Özet

Brusella infeksiyonu asit, işitme kaybı ve pansitopeni birlikteliği literatürde henüz bildirilmemiştir. Yirmi beş yaşında kadın hasta ateş, asit, işitme kaybı ve pansitopeni nedeniyle kliniğe yatırıldı. Kemik iliği ve asit kültürlerinde Brusella melitensis saptanan hastanın, yapılan tüp aglütinasyon testi de 1/1280 titrede pozitif bulundu. Uygulanan kombine antibakteriyel tedavi (siprofloksasin, rifampin ve doksisiklin) ile hastanın yakınmaları altıncı haftada tamamen düzeldi
