Mild anemia and leukopenia are the most common hematologic findings in the course of acute brucellosis. Severe form of thrombocytopenia is less frequently reported. We describe a case of acute brucellosis in a 20-year-old man, who presented with fever, purpuric skin lesions, epistaxis, and hematuria. The absolute platelet count was 2 × 109/L. The patient was diagnosed as suffering from brucellosis on the basis of a strongly positive serologic reaction and was treated with antibiotics and a short course of corticosteroids, with a rapid rise in platelet count. Brucella infection can cause immune-mediated thrombocytopenia that is reversible after appropriate antimicrobial therapy and steroid treatment.

Certain risk factors appear to separate subjects with repeated primary carcinomas of the lip from the general population of patients with carcinoma of the lip. Factors that were found statistically significant in increasing the chance of recurrent carcinoma of the lip include outdoor occupations requiring prolonged exposure to sunlight or the use of tobacco on a regular basis. Significant risk factors of a clinical nature include a positive serologic reaction for syphilis; the presence of leukoplakia, hyperkeratosis, or actinic cheilitis; or the presence of a basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the facial skin.

Tropocollagen preparations from carp, buffalo fish, rats, calves, sheep, and humans have been studied by electron microscopy and serologic methods. Tropocollagens from each species appeared identical by electron microscopy but they were readily distinguished (except between sheep and calves) by C'-fixation tests with rabbit antisera against the various tropocollagens. Tests with calf tropocollagen antiserum showed no distinction between tropocollagen isolated from different tissues nor between individuals of the same or different strains. The major immunogenic sites in native tropocollagen are the telopeptides, and these are present on both α1- and α2-chains. The C'-fixing activity was lost with heat denaturation of the tropocollagen, but could be recovered in a concentration-dependent process on cooling. The fact that pure and enzyme-treated collagen can provoke serologic reaction implies that collagenous sutures and prostheses used in surgery may lead to sensitization and rejection, a fact which may merit clinical concern.
