## TL;DR

This paper describes a rare case of acute brucellosis in a 28-year-old woman with fever, weight loss, and multiple organ lesions.

## Contribution

The novelty lies in the rare presentation of brucellosis involving multifocal osteomyelitis and hepatosplenic lesions.

## Key findings

- Brucellosis can present with multifocal osteomyelitis and hepatosplenic lesions.
- The case highlights the importance of considering brucellosis in febrile illnesses with compatible epidemiology.
- Systemic zoonotic infections like brucellosis can affect multiple organs simultaneously.

## Abstract

Brucellosis is a systemic zoonotic infection that can involve any organ or system in the body. It may present with a broad spectrum of clinical manifestations. Considering such myriad presentations, brucellosis should always be considered in the differential diagnosis of any febrile illness in a compatible epidemiological context. Here, we report a rare presentation of acute brucellosis with multifocal osteomyelitis and hepatosplenic lesions.
