Brucellosis is an infectious disease commonly presents with fever, fatigue, arthralgia, and muscle pain. Nonetheless, hyponatremia and its related symptoms have been reported as presenting features of brucellosis. Herein, we report a 56-year-old male presenting with ataxia and SIADH-related hyponatremia induced by brucellosis. The ataxia improved following hyponatremia correction. Up to our knowledge, this is the first case of reversible cerebellar ataxia occurring in the setting of brucellosis-related SIADH.
布鲁氏菌病是一种常见的传染病,通常表现为发热、疲劳、关节痛和肌肉疼痛。尽管如此,低钠血症及其相关症状已被报道为布鲁氏菌病的表现特征。在此,我们报告一例56岁男性,因布鲁氏菌病诱发共济失调和抗利尿激素分泌异常综合征(SIADH)相关的低钠血症。低钠血症纠正后共济失调有所改善。据我们所知,这是首例在布鲁氏菌病相关的抗利尿激素分泌异常综合征背景下发生的可逆性小脑共济失调病例。
