Whereas typhoid fever is still an endemic disease in some parts of the world, meningeal involvement in this disease is a rare occurrence. We report a case of Salmonella typhi meningitis in a 70-year-old woman. The patient was treated with ampicillin and the only sequela was right-sided deafness.

Salmonella typhi osteomyelitis
Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery, 1994Salmonella infections in man can be divided in five clinical groups: enteric fever, septicaemia without localization, focal disease, gastroenteritis and the carrier state. Salmonella typhi is mostly associated with enteric fever and the carrier state. Bone infections due to S. typhi have been reported relatively seldom. They usually occur as the result

Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 1999
We report on five patients with Salmonella typhi spondylitis who were immunologically normal and had no prodromal gastrointestinal illness. The diagnosis was confirmed on blood cultures, Widal test, and needle biopsy of the spine. Appropriate antibiotic treatment resulted in a favorable outcome.

Quinolones in Salmonella typhi Infection [PDF]
Drugs, 1993 The quinolones possess a high degree of in vitro activity against enteric bacteria, including Salmonella. This observation, coupled with the limitations of current antityphoid agents, has resulted in the evaluation of quinolones in the therapy of S. typhi infection, including both enteric fever and chronic intestinal carriage.

Salmonella typhi Meningitis in a Neonate
Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1977Salmonella is a relatively rare, but noteworthy cause of purulent meningitis in infancy. At one time, the prognosis for infants with salmonella meningitis was thought to be uniformly poor, 1,2 but recently a number of cases involving successfully treated patients have been reported. 3-6 We are reporting a case of Salmonella typhi meningitis in a 3-week-

Non-typhi Salmonella bacteraemia [PDF]
Infection, 1989 We reviewed retrospectively the clinical records of patients with non-typhi Salmonella bacteraemia in our hospital from 1979 to 1988. During the study period 45 non-typhi Salmonella bacteraemias were diagnosed in 43 patients. Ten patients were under one year old and 11 were over 60. Seven cases of sepsis presented in patients with AIDS.

Recurrent Salmonella typhi Peritonitis
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1980SALMONELLA typhi peritonitis is rarely seen in the United States today. 1 Recently the incidence of typhoid in the United States has been 0.2 cases per 100,000 people per year, with one third of the cases attributed to foreign travel. 2 In older series 2% of patients with typhoid had perforation of viscera and peritonitis. At the Kings County Hospital

Salmonella Typhi Murium in Penguins
Journal of Comparative Pathology and Therapeutics, 1947Summary An outbreak of apparently infectious disease among penguins is described. Salmonella typhi murium was isolated from some of the penguins. Two penguins were found to be healthy carriers of the organism. The carriers were successfully treated by large doses of “sulpha” drugs. Penguins can tolerate up to 1 g.

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2003
Salmonella enterica infections cause considerable morbidity and mortality worldwide. Antimicrobial therapy may be life-saving for patients with extraintestinal infections with S. enterica serotype Typhi or non-Typhi salmonellae. Because antimicrobial resistance to several classes of traditional first-line drugs has emerged in the past several decades ...

Siderophore production by Salmonella typhi
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1988This study was initiated to determine the mechanism of iron-uptake in Salmonella typhi. When stressed for iron, microorganisms produce siderophores to obtain the necessary nutrient. Generally two types of siderophores exist: the phenolate-type predominantly produced by bacteria and the hydroxamate-type commonly secreted by fungi.
