Abstract

Despite being a treatable and preventable zoonosis, brucellosis is still endemic in certain areas of the world. Nervous system involvement is a rare but an important complication of brucellosis in childhood. Neurobrucellosis should be taken into consideration in the differential diagnosis of any kind of neurological signs, particularly in endemic areas. The authors present a patient with neurobrucellosis who presented with isolated intracranial hypertension without any other systemic symptoms of brucellosis.
