Tekrarlayan salmonella subgrup 1 septisemisi: Vaka sunumu

Salmonella infeksiyonu genellikle gastrointestinal sistemi tutan ve kendi kendini sınırlayan bir infeksiyon olmasına karşın bakteriyemi yolu ile fokal komplikasyonlara neden olabilir. Ancak merkezi sinir sistemi infeksiyonları en-derdir. Ev bulaşı sonrasında salmonella infeksiyonu gelişen ve antibiyotik tedavisine karşın subdural efüzyon ve apse formasyonu görülen iki aylık bir vaka sunulmaktadır. Bu vaka salmonella infeksiyonlarında ev bulaşı ve antibiyotik direncinin önemini vurgulamaktadır.

Central nervous system infections are rare compliciations of Salmonella infection. We present a case of two month girl who was infected with salmonella after contact with household index and despite having adequate treatment she developed subdural effusion and brain abcess. The importance of household transmission and antibiotic resistance in salmonella infections is emphasized.
