Bacteriuria due to Typhoidal and Nontyphoidal Salmonella: A Report of Three Cases from South India

Imola Jamir et al. Am J Trop Med Hyg. .

Abstract

Urinary tract infection (UTI) with Salmonella is uncommon, accounting for merely 0.01% to 0.1% of cases of UTIs. It is reported more frequently in the presence of predisposing factors such as structural abnormalities of the urinary tract or weakened immune system. We present a case series of three patients with Salmonella bacteriuria and their susceptibility patterns. All three patients had underlying urologic features such as neurogenic bladder, chronic kidney disease, and urethral stricture, and two presented with urinary tract involvement symptoms.
