[Spondylitis brucellosa].

The authors report on three cases of spondylitis brucellosa, and their course over a period of more than two years. The clinical and radiological characteristics of spondylitis brucellosa are described, as well as possible ways of distinguishing it diagnostically from tubercular and other non-tubercular types of spondylitis. In the main, confirmation of diagnosis will be provided by immunologic investigations, and these should be routine in any differential diagnostic identification of spondylitis.
