Splenectomy due to splenic abscess is without doubt an unusual occurrence, especially in Western countries. The paper reports the case of 19-year-old male who underwent splenectomy because of an abscess caused by Salmonella typhi. Following a revision of the literature it appears that only six cases of splenic abscess by S. typhi have been reported since 1940. Splenectomy represents the elective treatment for patients with splenic abscess provoked by any cause.
因脾脓肿而行脾切除术无疑是一种罕见的情况，尤其是在西方国家。本文报告了一名19岁男性因伤寒沙门氏菌引起的脓肿而接受脾切除术的病例。查阅文献后发现，自1940年以来，仅报告了6例由伤寒沙门氏菌引起的脾脓肿病例。脾切除术是针对任何原因引起的脾脓肿患者的选择性治疗方法。
