We report an immunocompetent 24-year-old man who presented with a severe, invasive non-typhoidal salmonella (iNTS) infection. He presented with lumbar back pain associated with fever and rigours, which had been preceded by diarrhoea. Blood cultures grew Salmonella enteritidis. An MRI scan of his pelvis and spine showed that he had a small gluteal abscess and sacroiliitis. His condition subsequently deteriorated due to the development of a secondary pneumonia and respiratory failure. He was managed conservatively with 2 weeks of intravenous ceftriaxone, followed by 6 weeks of oral ciprofloxacin. Detailed investigations did not reveal any predisposing factors or evidence of an underlying immunodeficiency. Follow-up showed complete resolution of symptoms with no long-term sequelae.

“…Furthermore, we wanted to minimize the changes of sinus tract formation. Salmonella infections, amoebic gluteal abscesses, injection site abscesses (especially after intramuscular chloroquine injection), Crohn's disease, and carcinoma of the colon are the differential diagnoses that should be kept in mind while treating patients with chronic gluteal abscess [5][6][7][8][9].…”

Gluteal abscess is a well-documented presentation of a caries spine and other local bony foci of tuberculosis. Still, during a PUBMED data search, only one report of vertebral tuberculosis presenting only as a gluteal abscess in adults was found in English medical literature. The current article describes a case of tuberculosis of the lumbar spine with gluteal abscess as the only clinical feature, in an immunocompetent young adult.

“…Tanıda kan, idrar, gaita ve abselerden elde edilen kültürler altın standarttır (1,5,9). Muskuler abselerde etken olarak sıklıkla S. enteritidis ve S. typhimurium gösterilmiştir (4)(5)(6)8). Bizim hastamızda ise abseden elde edilen kültürde S. typhimurium saptanmıştır.…”

Ge liş ta ri hi/Re cei ved: 04.03.2015 Ka bul ta ri hi/Ac cep ted: 15.05.2015 Giriş Salmonella enfeksiyonları dünyada yaygın olarak görülmektedir ve enterik ateş mortalitesi yüksek invaziv bir enfeksiyondur. Non-tifoidal Salmonella enfeksiyonları ise genellikle kendini sınırlayan gastroenteritler şeklinde karşımıza çıkmaktadırlar, ancak özellikle yaşlılık ve yenidoğan dönemi, malign hastalıklar, uzun süren kortikosteroid kullanımı, Human İmmundeficiency Virus (HIV) enfeksiyonu gibi immün sistemin baskılandığı durumlarda barsak duvarına penetre olan mikroorganizma ishal sonrası bakteriyemiye neden olmaktadır (1). Bakteriyemi ile beraber özellikle immun yetmezliği bulunan bireylerde karaciğer, dalak, beyin, kalp, kemik, deri ve kasta fokal abse odaklarına neden olabilmektedir (1-3). Salmonella türlerinin neden olduğu gluteal abse erişkinlerde görülmekle beraber bugüne kadar çocuklarda bildirilmemiştir (4-6). Burada daha önceden bilinen bir hastalığı bulunmayan 13 aylık bir kız çocuğunda ishal sonrası gelişen bir gluteal abse olgusu sunulmuştur. Olgu Sunumu On üç aylık kız hasta birkaç gün içinde giderek artan, sol gluteal bölgede daha fazla olmak üzere her iki gluteal bölgede kızarıklık, şişlik ve ateş yakınmalarıyla hastanemize getirildi. Hastanın on gün öncesine kadar yurtdışında yaşadığı ve orada iki ay süren ishal nedeniyle adını bilmedikleri antibiyotikleri oral yoldan ve gluteal bölgeden intramusküler olarak aldığı ve ishalinin düzeldiği öğrenildi. Aralarında akrabalık olmayan ABS tRACt Özet The non-typhoidal Salmonella infections normally cause self-limiting gastroenteritis; but invasive gastroenteritis may occur, especially in newborns, elderly and immunosuppresive patients. In addition to bacteriemia, it may cause severe infections such as meningitis, brain abscess, septic arthritis and soft tissue abscesses. Muscle abscesses caused by non-typhoid salmonella infections have been rarely reported in adults. Here, a 13-month-old girl who developed gluteal abscess due to Salmonella typhimirium after diarrhea is presented.
