dc.description.abstractAim: Brucellosis is an important problem all over the world. The most common form is bone-joint involvement. In thisstudy, we planned to reveal our experiences by examining the epidemiological, clinical, laboratory and radiologicalfeatures of brucellosis cases with and without bone-joint involvement.Material and Methods: This retrospective clinical study includes the data of 443 patients who were followed up withthe diagnosis of brucellosis between December 2014 and August 2019. The epidemiological, clinical, laboratory andradiological findings of the patients were obtained from the patient files and hospital database. Patients were dividedinto two groups as with and without bone-joint involvement and their data were compared statistically.Results: A total of 443 patients who were followed up with a diagnosis of brucellosis were included in the study. 92(20.8%) of these patients had bone-joint involvement of brucellosis (sacroileitis, spondylodiscitis, arthritis, bursitis,synovitis). Magnetic resonance imaging method was used for diagnosis in patients with bone-joint involvement.Patients with bone-joint involvement had longer duration of complaints, and acute phase reactants and agglutinationtiters were higher.Conclusion: Bone-joint involvement in brucellosis is very important as it may cause inadequate treatment and may endwith sequelae. Radiological imaging is important in the diagnosis of bone-joint involvement, but unnecessary requestsshould also be avoided. Symptom duration, acute phase reactants, agglutination titer may be guiding for this.en_US
