“…The worldwide incidence rate of NTS infection is high as the strains can be found naturally in the environment and in both domestic and wild animals including cats, dogs, amphibians, reptiles and rodents. The diversity of possible reservoirs of infection results in significant Werber et al (2005) challenges for public health authorities to control the infections (Swanson et al 2007;Dione et al 2011).…”

Salmonella is one of the most frequently isolated foodborne pathogens. It is a major worldwide public health concern, accounting for 93.8 million foodborne illnesses and 155,000 deaths per year. To date, over 2500 Salmonella serotypes have been identified and more than half of them belong to Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica, which accounts for the majority of Salmonella infections in humans. Salmonella infections that involve invasive serotypes are often life threatening, necessitating appropriate and effective antibiotic therapy. The emergence of multi-drug-resistant (MDR) Salmonella serotypes is having a great impact on the efficacy of antibiotic treatment, and an increasing prevalence of MDR strains may lead to an increase in mortality rates of Salmonella infections. Epidemiological studies indicate that MDR Salmonella serotypes are more virulent than susceptible strains, as reflected by increased severity and more prolonged disease in patients infected by MDR strains. Preventive measures have been proposed to eliminate the spread of Salmonella infection. While the maintenance of effective food hygiene and water sanitation remain the cornerstones, additional measures such as restriction of indiscriminate use of antibiotics in food animals are important. This review provides an overview of Salmonella infection, and discusses the nomenclature, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, epidemiology and antibiotic resistance of Salmonella.

“…Typical infections with Salmonella affect the gastrointestinal tract, while atypical infections are possible in conditions associated with compromised immune system (human immunodeficiency virus -positive patients, transplant recipients), diabetes mellitus, thyroid disorders (ie, in nodular goiter as a complication of FNAB), anatomical abnormalities (pyriform sinus fistula), corticosteroid therapy, advanced age, neoplastic disease, and contact with breeding animals. [3][4][5] The only detected risk factor for the development of acute thyroiditis in our patient was diabetes mellitus, although it was well controlled on 2 medications. Other risk factors were excluded.…”

“…9,10 Withdrawal of the Tenckoff catheter is not routinely necessary for the treatment of uncomplicated bacterial peritonitis. [10][11][12] Due to the small number of described cases, there is no consensus regarding Tenckoff catheter exchange in cases of recurrent Salmonella peritonitis in peritoneal dialysis. However, we believe that this procedure is to be executed in this particular circumstance.…”
