Non-typhoid Salmonella are food-borne pathogens that cause gastroenteritis, bacteraemia, and subsequent focal metastatic infection. Endovascular infection is an important focal complication associated with a significant mortality and morbidity. Because of its insidious onset and poor prognosis, it is important to treat patients with non-typhoid salmonellosis and to diagnosed at an early stage, before the development of endovascular infection.
Complications of Salmonella Infection
Typhoid fever, also known as enteric fever, is caused by Salmonella serotype typhi. The onset of symptoms usually occurs between 5 and 21 days after ingestion of Salmonela typhi bacteria. Symptoms may include constipation, cough, sore throat, headache, and a rash on the infected individual’s chest, as well as the slowing of the heartbeat and enlargement of the liver and spleen.
Bacteremia is characterized by infection of tissues surrounding the brain and spinal cord (meningitis) and infection within the bloodstream (sepsis). This condition occurs when Salmonella enter and circulate within an infected individual’s bloodstream, and is accompanied by few symptoms.
