Cervical Lymphadenitis Caused by Group D Non-typhoidal Salmonella Associated with Concomitant Lymphoma

چکیده
Non-typhoidal Salmonella species are important foodborne pathogens that can cause gastroenteritis, bacteremia, and subsequent focal infections. Non-typhoidal salmonellosis is problematic, particularly in immunocompromised hosts. Any anatomical site can be affected by this pathogen via hematogenous seeding and may develop local infections. However, cervical lymphadenitis caused by non-typhoidal Salmonella species is rarely reported. Herein, we have reported a case of cervical lymphadenitis caused by group D non-typhoidal Salmonella associated with lymphoma.

Focal non-typhoidal Salmonella infections from a single center in Malaysia.
A retrospective review of patients with focal non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) infection was performed to determine its features and outcome. All patients with focal NTS infection admitted to the University of Malaya Medical Center, Malaysia, from 1993 to 2002 were studied. More than half (58%) of the 35 cases (54% male, median age 39 years, range 1.5 months to 79 years) were immunocompromized or...

ABSTRACT The epidemiological studies indicate that the incidence of salmonellosis is increasing throughout the world. The uncontroled and unappropriate usage of antibiotics has been caused multi - drug resistance in these organisms, in recent years. In a cross-sectional descriptive study, 204 strains of typhoidal salmonella (T.S) and 114 strains of non-typhoidal salmonella (N.T.S) were exami...
متن کاملCholecystitis and subphrenic abscess caused by Salmonella virchow.
Introduction Infection of the gall-bladder is well described and occurs almost invariably in enteric fever caused by Salmonella typhi. Despite this, however, symptoms of acute cholecystitis occur in only 2% of cases (Stuart and Pullen, 1946). Systemic invasion is a much rarer sequel of infection with food poisoning Salmonella, and this has been associated with certain types, e.g. S. choleraesui...
