Neurobrucellosis, a brain infection from Brucella bacteria, is rarely reported in India. This study highlights four meningoencephalitis cases linked to animal contact and raw milk, urging physician awareness.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Human brucellosis, particularly neurobrucellosis, is infrequently documented in India.
  • Animal brucellosis and its seroprevalence are more commonly reported in specific Indian regions.

Observation:

  • This report details four cases of neurobrucellosis manifesting as meningoencephalitis.
  • All patients exhibited close contact with animals.
  • A history of raw milk consumption was noted in three of the four cases.

Findings:

  • Diagnosis was confirmed via serological testing.
  • Agglutination titres exceeded 1:320 in all affected individuals.

Implications:

  • This case series aims to increase physician awareness of neurobrucellosis.
