Pautas diagnósticas y actitud terapéutica ante un bruceloma hepático

Liver involvement due to brucellosis can occur during the acute or the chronic phase of the disease. The marked tendency toward circumscription can give rise to hepatic pseudotumoral lesions with a calcified granulomatous appearance, called brucellomas. Surgery is the only correct treatment, including Brucella PCR in the central calcified lesion, because serological studies are often inconclusive.
