Increased antimicrobial resistance to Salmonella species threatens successful treatment of typhoid and other infectious diseases. Consequently, rare complications arising from incompletely treated typhoid could increase in frequency. We describe a case of enteric encephalopathy caused by Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi and the utility of adjunct treatment with corticosteroids.
沙门氏菌属对抗菌药物的耐药性增加,威胁到伤寒和其他传染病的成功治疗。因此,未完全治愈的伤寒可能会导致更频繁出现罕见并发症。我们描述了一例由伤寒沙门氏菌血清型 Typhi 引起的肠性脑病,并说明了皮质类固醇辅助治疗的效果。
