布鲁氏菌病是一种人畜共患疾病。它也是被忽视的传染病之一,与其他疾病相比不太为人所知。它是从受感染的动物(牛,绵羊,山羊,骆驼,猪,或其他动物)通过食用未经巴氏杀菌的乳制品或与组织或液体接触。神经性布鲁氏菌病中的感觉神经性听力损失(SNHL)已在文献中进行了描述,主要是作为一个偶然的发现,耳鼻喉科医生应该考虑任何发烧和中东旅行史的患者,中美洲或南美洲,或其他布鲁氏菌病流行国家。我们介绍了一例患有严重双侧SNHL的神经布鲁氏菌病病例,该病例长期接受联合抗生素治疗,并强调了患者的临床过程。
Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease. It is also one of the neglected infectious diseases and is less well-known compared to other diseases. It is acquired from infected animals (cattle, sheep, goats, camels, pigs, or other animals) through the consumption of unpasteurized dairy products or contact with tissues or fluids. Sensory neural hearing loss (SNHL) in neurobrucellosis had been described in the literature, mostly as an incidental finding that otolaryngologists should consider in any patient with fever and a history of travel to the Middle East, Central or South America, or other brucellosis-endemic countries. We present a neurobrucellosis
case with profound bilateral SNHL that was treated with combination antibiotic therapy for long periods of time and highlight the clinical course of the patient.
