title: Neurobrucellosis.
abstract: Brucellosis, which is endemic in Saudi Arabia, can present as a disease with multisystem involvement. Occasionally the organisms invade the central nervous system producing varied neurological manifestations. Often the clinical diagnosis of neurobrucellosis is not straight forward and is obscure. Certain criteria have to be fulfilled for the definitive diagnosis of neurobrucellosis. We report 2 cases of neurobrucellosis which were encountered for the first time during the past 10 years at this hospital.
