Popis: Bruceloza je vjerojatno najčešća antropozoonoza u svijetu, ali je u različitim aspektima velika enigma. Prikazan je slučaj 64-godišnjeg muškarca s akutnim hepatitisom uzrokovanim brucelom, koji zahtijeva pažnju, jer je rijedak u literaturi. Etiologija bolesti je dokazana pozitivnom hemokulturom i serološkim testom (ELISA IgM). Biljezi virusnog hepatitisa i imunološki biljezi autoimunog hepatitisa bili su negativni. Brucelozu treba uzeti u obzir u diferencijalnoj dijagnozi vrućice i hepatitisa kod osoba koje žive ili su posjetili endemska područja, posebno ako je bolesnikov posao s visokim rizikom za stjecanje bruceloze.
Brucellosis is probably the most common anthropozoonosis in the world, but in various aspects remains an enigma. A case is reported of a 64-year-old man with acute brucella hepatitis, which requires attention because it is rare in the literature. The etiology of the disease was proven by positive blood cultures and serologic test (ELISA IgM). Viral hepatitis markers and immunologic markers of autoimmune hepatitis were negative. Brucellosis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of fever and hepatitis in those who live or have visited endemic areas, especially if the patient’s job is associated with a high risk of acquiring brucellosis.
