[Diagnostic and therapeutic problems in typhoid fever complicated by severe enterorrhagia (apropos a patient successfully treated by surgery)]
Abstract
The case history of a 69-year-old patient with typhoid fever is described. The disease ran an atypical course; with early jaundice syndrome, severe enterorrhagia and late appearance of roseola. He was successfully treated by surgical intervention--hemicolectomy. The need of surgical treatment of patients with typhoid fever, who have severe, life-threatening enterorrhagia, is emphasized.
