We report a case of anterior chest wall abscess in an immunocompetent adult by Salmonella enteritidis, whose food was contaminated by bird droppings. The patient did not have any gastrointestinal symptoms. Surgical excision followed by antibiotics (cefuroxime and ciprofloxacin) successfully treated the condition. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of anterior chest wall abscess caused by S. enteritidis in an immunocompetent adult without any preceding gastrointestinal symptoms. We feel that the contamination of his food with the bird droppings was a risk factor.
我们报告一例免疫功能正常的成年人因肠炎沙门氏菌导致的前胸壁脓肿病例，其食物被鸟粪污染。该患者没有任何胃肠道症状。手术切除并使用抗生素（头孢呋辛和环丙沙星）成功治愈了该疾病。据我们所知，这是首例报道的免疫功能正常的成年人在无前驱胃肠道症状的情况下由肠炎沙门氏菌引起的前胸壁脓肿病例。我们认为其食物被鸟粪污染是一个危险因素。
