Özet:

Brucellosis is a common zoonotic bacterial infection seen all over the world. It causes economic losses and major health concerns in many developing countries. Humans are infected primarily through raw milk and dairy products, and to a smaller extent by direct contact with infected animals. Due to its various systemic symptoms, brucellosis is included in the differential diagnosis of many diseases. Cholecystitis is a rare complication of brucellosis. Brucella species can settle in numerous organs and cause atypical clinical forms due to their capacity to cause bacteremia. Brucellosis, an endemic disease in our country, may present with a variety of clinical symptoms and consequences, making diagnosis and treatment difficult. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the literature on gallbladder involvement, which is an atypical involvement of brucellosis.
