Background:

Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease with diverse clinical manifestations.
Spondylitis brucellosa is a rare but serious complication of brucellosis.
Accurate diagnosis is essential for effective treatment and preventing complications.

Observation:

The study presents three cases of spondylitis brucellosa followed for over two years.
Detailed clinical and radiological features of these cases are described.
Diagnostic challenges in differentiating from tubercular and non-tubercular spondylitis are highlighted.

Findings:

Immunologic investigations are key to confirming the diagnosis of spondylitis brucellosa.
Specific diagnostic criteria and differential diagnostic approaches are discussed.
