PROSTAT INVOLVEMENT IN BRUCELLOSIS

Öz

Although brucellosis has a wide range of clinical symptoms and can linger for several days or even years, it is frequently misunderstood, which can lead to ineffective treatment and protracted sickness. Brucellosis may affect the male genitourinary system in some patients. Prostate involvement is very rare. In this review, we aimed to review the literature on prostate involvement of brucellosis.

BRUSELLOZDA PROSTAT TUTULUMU

Öz

Bruselloz çok çeşitli klinik semptomlara sahip olmasına ve birkaç gün hatta yıllarca sürebilmesine rağmen, sıklıkla yanlış anlaşılır ve bu da etkisiz tedaviye ve uzun süreli hastalığa yol açabilir. Bruselloz erkek genitoüriner sistemi bazı hastalarda etkileyebilir. Prostat tutulumu ise oldukça nadirdir. Bu derleme çalışmasında, brusellozun prostat tutulumu hakkında literatürü gözden geçirmeyi amaçladık.
