Brucellosis

Brucellosis is a systemic zoonotic bacterial infection caused by intracellular coccobacilli of the genus *Brucella*, primarily transmitted to humans through direct contact with infected livestock, occupational exposure, or the consumption of unpasteurized dairy products Clinically, it is characterized by an acute or insidious onset of undulant fever, profound fatigue, malaise, headache, drenching night sweats, and musculoskeletal manifestations such as arthralgia, sacroiliitis, or spondylitis

The disease predominantly targets the reticuloendothelial system, though it can involve any organ system, including the musculoskeletal, hepatobiliary, nervous, and cardiovascular systems Without prompt intervention, the organism can persist intracellularly within host macrophages, leading to chronic relapsing disease, focal abscesses, hepatosplenomegaly, or life-threatening infective endocarditis
