Salmonella species are associated with bacteraemia, diarrhoea, as well as focal infections. Salmonella Typhi is the most pathogenic species. Salmonella Paratyphi B commonly affects immunocompromised hosts. The present case series showcases six cases of infection caused by typhoidal Salmonellae with unusual clinical scenarios. The first case report explains a case of neonatal meningitis where the causative agent was S. Paratyphi B. A case of lumbar spondylodiscitis is also reported where the aetiology was found to be Salmonella Typhi. Case three reports S. Typhi infection in a patient with Pre-B cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL). S. Paratyphi B was isolated from a blood culture of a patient on haemodialysis and also from ascitic fluid from a case of Chronic Liver Disease (CLD). S. Typhi was isolated from the pleural fluid of a patient with carcinoma of the prostate. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
