Core Tip |
Most patients of Brucellosis present with a clear infection source. However, our patient showed a rare case presentation of haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis with no clear infection source and unremarkable medical history. Our findings suggest that Brucellosis cannot be excluded in patients with clinically unexplained fever, even in those without epidemiologic history. To prevent timely exacerbation of the disease, before obtaining the aetiology test results, the administered antibiotics should cover rare pathogens, such as Brucella. |
