Brucellosis in an Adult Who was Admitted with Clinical Signs of Orchitis

Bruselloz gelişmekte olan ülkelerde yaygın olarak görülen ve sıklıkla sistemik seyreden bir enfeksiyon hastalığıdır. Ülkemizde de bruselloz endemik bir hastalıktır. Brusella nadir olarak genitoüriner sistemi tutabilmektedir. Epididimoorşit bazen sistemik hastalığın seyri sırasında görülmekte, bazen de yalnız başına bir klinik tablo olarak ortaya çıkmaktadır. Tanının gecikmesi durumunda testislerde ciddi komplikasyonlar gelişebilmektedir. Bu çalışmada aile hekimliği polikliniğinde brusella orşiti tanısı alan ve tüm aile bireylerinde brusella enfeksiyonu saptanan bir olgu sunulmuştur.

Orşit Bulguları İle Başvuran Bir Erişkinde Bruselloz

Brucellosis is a common infectious disease in developing countries and it usually has systemic symptoms. It is an endemic disease also in our country. It may rarely involve urogenital system. Epidydimo-orchitis may be seen in the course of the systemic disease or may arise as an individual clinical manifestation. Severe testicular complications may develop in case of delay in diagnosis. In this case report, we presented a patient who was diagnosed with brucella orchitis in family medicine outpatient clinc and whose family members were detected to have brucella infection thereafter.
