Abstract
Chronic localized brucellosis of the spleen possibly may exist as a clinical entity apart from detectable brucellar involvement of other reticuloendothelial organs. Apparently the infection may be restricted to the spleen in some cases, and antibiotic therapy may eradicate the infection in other organs but not in the spleen. Six cases are reported, and a series of 10 cases is reviewed.Keywords
