Pulmonary Brucellosis: Epidemiology and Risk Factors

Selby Derman

Brucellosis, caused by various Brucella species, is a zoonotic disease that can affect multiple organ systems. While the disease is often characterized by fever, joint pain, and malaise, its pulmonary form, though less common, presents unique challenges. This abstract provides an overview of pulmonary brucellosis, focusing on its epidemiology and risk factors. Understanding the prevalence, distribution, and key determinants of this manifestation is crucial for public health efforts. This review also discusses the risk factors associated with the development of pulmonary brucellosis, highlighting occupational exposure, dietary habits, and individual factors. A thorough understanding of the epidemiology and risk factors is essential for improving diagnostic accuracy, enhancing prevention strategies, and managing this complex form of brucellosis effectively.
