  • Title: [Case report: brucellosis complicated by epididymo-orchitis and paravertebral abscess].
    Author: Cesur S, Ciftçi A, Sözen TH, Tekeli E.
    Journal: Mikrobiyol Bul; 2002 Jan; 36(1):95-8. PubMed ID: 12476773.
    Abstract:
    Brucellosis which is a zoonotic infection involving many systems, is widespread in Turkey. Although muscular and skeletal system involvements are common, genitourinary system complications (epididymo-orchitis) are observed rarely. Brucellosis accompanied by abscess formation in the vertebra is generally seen in the elderly and patients with chronic diseases, while epididymo-orchitis in young patients. However, it is very unusual to detect these two complications together. In this report, a case of 42 years old male patient with epididymo-orchitis and paravertebral abscess due to brucellosis, has been presented.
