| dc.description.abstract | Brucellar infections are still a major public health issue in Mediterranean countries. Brucellosis may cause hematological abnormalities, particularly cytopenias. Severe thrombocytopenia leading to mucosal bleeding and purpuric rash is relatively infrequent. We herewith present three patients who were admitted with mucosal bleeding and purpura, and were finally diagnosed as brucellosis. The severe isolated thrombocytopenia, purpuric rash and compatible bone marrow findings on admission suggested the presumed diagnosis of ITP in all cases. All three patients received different treatment regimens and finally recovered without complications. There is no consensus regarding the management of brucella-induced thrombocytopenic purpura in the literature. The hematological consequences of brucellosis should always be kept in mind in the differential diagnosis of isolated thrombocytopenia in endemic areas. | en_US |
