Brucellosis is a zoonotic infectious disease that is known endemic infection in Saudi Arabia. Yet, this infection has not been reported as evident cause of prostatic abscess. we present a new case of prostatic abscess caused by brucella organism proven using pus culture and serology. These organisms should be suspected in patients presenting with clinical picture of prostatic abscess especially in endemic areas.
布鲁氏菌病是一种人畜共患传染病,在沙特阿拉伯属于已知的地方性感染病。然而,这种感染尚未被报告为前列腺脓肿的明显病因。我们报告一例由布鲁氏菌引起的前列腺脓肿新病例,通过脓液培养和血清学检查得以证实。对于出现前列腺脓肿临床表现的患者,尤其是在地方性流行地区的患者,应怀疑存在这些病原体感染。
