Brucellosis is the most commonly reported zoonosis. Nervous system participation can occur at any stage of the disease either in acute or subacute or chronic form. Isolated nervous system involvement or neurobrucellosis is a relatively rare form of the disease. We describe an unusual case of an older patient with dementia with recent onset of seizures in the context of primary isolated intraventricular haemorrhage, diagnosed as chronic neurobrucellosis.
