Brucellosis is a rare zoonotic infection caused by small, fastidious Gram-negative coccobacilli of the genus Brucella that may be associated with haemolytic complications including thrombotic microangiopathy and haemolytic anaemia. We describe a patient with culture confirmed brucellosis who presented with malaise, high grade fever, hepatosplenomegaly and Coombs-positive autoimmune haemolytic anaemia. The patient was successfully treated with combination of doxycycline and rifampicin with no further episodes of relapses or haemolysis. Although rare, the possibility of brucellosis should always be kept in mind in patients with risk factors who present with haemolysis and endemic area.
