Neurobrucellosis: Isolated Intracranial Hypertension

We present the case of a 22-year-old man who was admitted to hospital with intracranial hypertension, headache, papilledema, and a normal brain imaging. The most common clinical presentation of neurobrucellosis is subacute and chronic meningoencephalitis. Isolated intracranial hypertension in brucella enfections is quite rare, with an incidence reported to be 0,5%. Isolated intracranial hypertension clinic in the differential diagnosis in patients presenting with neurobrucellosis should be considered, especially in endemic areas.
