Abstract Background Brucellosis is endemic in Iran, and is seen in all age groups, including children. Its diagnosis in childhood needs a high index of suspicion. The diagnostic methods currently in use need evaluation for analytical performance. Objective The present study tries to evaluate the hematological indices, serologic markers of inflammation and symptoms in patients suspected of...
