Abstract
We report a patient who presented with symptoms and signs of brucellosis and pseudotumor
cerebri. Brucellosis is a common and endemic disease in Isfahan. Different patterns
and manifestations, which are seen in this disease, may complicate the diagnosis.
Pseudotumor cerebri has been reported in limited number of articles as an early sign
for brucellosis. We report more details about the patient's signs, symptoms and serologic
diagnosis of this condition in this article. We treated our patient with rifampin
and doxycycline and gentamicin for 6 months. She had a complete recovery after 3 months.
