The most prevalent zoonotic disease is brucellosis, which poses a significant threat for worldwide public health. Particularly in endemic areas, spinal involvement is a major source of morbidity and mortality and can complicate the course of the disease. The diagnosis of spondylitis is challenging and should be suspected in the appropriate epidemiological and clinical context, in correlation with microbiological and radiological findings. Treatment depends largely on the affected parts of the body. Available treatment options include antibiotic administration for an adequate period of time and, when appropriate, surgical intervention. In this article, we examined the most recent data on the pathophysiology, clinical manifestation, diagnosis, and management of spinal brucellosis in adults.
最常见的人畜共患病是布鲁氏菌病，它对全球公共卫生构成重大威胁。特别是在流行地区，脊柱受累是发病和死亡的主要原因，并且会使疾病进程复杂化。脊柱炎的诊断具有挑战性，应在适当的流行病学和临床背景下，结合微生物学和影像学检查结果进行怀疑。治疗在很大程度上取决于身体受影响的部位。可用的治疗选择包括在适当的时间段内使用抗生素，以及在适当时进行手术干预。在本文中，我们研究了关于成人脊柱布鲁氏菌病的病理生理学、临床表现、诊断和管理的最新数据。
