Abstract

Fever with a rash is a common case scenario that clinicians encounter in their practice. The ubiquity of the presentation is proportional to the magnitude of the physician's dilemma due to its numerous causes. The diagnosis varies from infectious diseases to non-infectious, life threatening diseases including the current COVID-19 pandemic. Here we present a case of a 31-year-old male, who presented to the Emergency Department with fever and rash and was initially diagnosed and managed as a case of COVID-19 which on further evaluation proved to be brucellosis. This is a case of brucellosis with cutaneous manifestations which had been masquerading as COVID-19.
所有这些发疹性发烧都不是新冠肺炎
发烧伴皮疹是临床医生在实践中遇到的常见病例。由于其众多原因,无处不在的呈现与医生困境的大小成正比。从传染病到非传染性、威胁生命的疾病,包括当前的COVID-19大流行,诊断各不相同。在这里,我们报告了一例31岁男性病例,他以发烧和皮疹就诊于急诊科,最初被诊断为COVID-19病例,经进一步评估证实为布鲁氏菌病。这是一例皮肤表现的布鲁氏菌病,被伪装成COVID-19。
