ABSTRACT
Brucellosis is a zoonotic infection caused by the intracellular gram-negative bacterium Brucella. It is the most common zoonosis worldwide, and its transmission is classically associated with consumption of unpasteurized animal products. However, other mechanisms of transmission include contact of the skin or mucous membranes with infected animal tissue. We present a case of a patient who had more than one possible route of infection.
