Gaucher disease type I and brucellosis are chronic diseases with similar symptoms and physical signs though the former is the most common lysosomal storage disease and the latter is an infectious disease. The similarities between these diseases make differential diagnosis difficult. Immunodeficiency is a feature of Gaucher disease type I and increases the susceptibility towards infections. A Gaucher disease type I patient with brucellosis is presented with improvement after treatment of brucellosis.
I型戈谢病和布鲁氏菌病都是慢性病，症状和体征相似，尽管前者是最常见的溶酶体贮积病，后者是一种传染病。这些疾病之间的相似性使得鉴别诊断很困难。免疫缺陷是I型戈谢病的一个特征，会增加感染易感性。本文报告了一名患有布鲁氏菌病的I型戈谢病患者在布鲁氏菌病治疗后病情有所改善。
