Relapse occurs in 5 to 15 percent of patient usually in first 6 months following treatment, although in rare cases it may even occur in up to 12 months of treatment.[11][12] |
Chronic Brucellosis | Presence of clinical manifestation for more then one year after established diagnosis of brucellosis is considered as chronic brucellosis.
