Acute cholecystitis associated with Brucella melitensis bacteremia: A rare intraabdominal manifestation of brucellosis
Abstract
Abstract Brucellosis typically presents with nonspecific symptoms of intermittent fever, night sweats, malaise, and arthralgia but can involve any organs as focal brucellosis. Intraabdominal involvement is rare. We report a case of acute cholecystitis associated with brucellosis with no history of exposure to risk factors in a non‐endemic area.
