Infections with non-typhoidal salmonella (NTS) most commonly cause localised infections such as cutaneous abscesses in humans and are a leading source of foodborne illness. Here, we present a unique case of NTS Choleraesuis in a perianal abscess in an immunocompetent patient without any comorbidities.A woman in her late 40s was diagnosed with a perianal abscess with an unknown origin of infection. The patient has undergone an incision and drainage. Her pus culture and sensitivity report yielded serotype Choleraesuis. Then, the patient recovered after treatment with intravenous antibiotics and supportive treatment.We present an unusual case of serotype Choleraesuis, which is rarely reported as a causative agent of perianal abscess in India. This case has been reported for its rarity in India.
非伤寒沙门氏菌(NTS)感染最常引起局部感染,如人类皮肤脓肿,是食源性疾病的主要来源。在这里,我们报告了一例免疫功能正常的患者肛周脓肿中 NTS 肠炎沙门氏菌的独特病例,该患者无任何合并症。一名 40 多岁的女性被诊断为肛周脓肿,感染源不明。患者接受了切开引流术。她的脓液培养和药敏报告显示血清型为肠炎沙门氏菌。然后,患者在静脉用抗生素和支持治疗后康复。我们报告了一例不常见的肠炎沙门氏菌血清型病例,在印度很少有报道称其为肛周脓肿的病原体。该病例在印度较为罕见,因此报告该病例。
