Fever with pancytopenia: Ask and look to find the cause
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 8
Abstract
Brucellosis is the most common bacterial zoonotic disease encountered worldwide1 and is endemic in the Mediterranean countries of Europe, north and east Africa, the Middle East, south and central Asia and Central and South America and yet it is often unrecognized and frequently goes unreported2 . The infection is transmitted to humans by animals through direct contact with infected materials like afterbirth or indirectly by ingestion of animal products and by inhalation of airborne agents. Consumption of raw milk and cheese made from raw milk (fresh cheese) is the major source of infection in man. The bacterium survives for 6 weeks at 4° C in cream, 30 days in icecream, and 15 to 100 days in fresh cheese
