Abstrakt: Brucellosis is still one of the most common causes of fever of unknown origin (FUO) in endemic areas and is associated with several complications. Here, we report a patient with a diagnosis of brucellosis and FUO who developed a rare complication of vestibulopathy in the course of treatment and follow-up. We treated the vestibulopathy with acupuncture, and during 10 days of treatment, the irreversible complication of vestibulopathy disappeared. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of brucellosis with vestibulopathy treated with traditional medicine that achieved complete improvement within 10 days. © 2015 S.
