Overview

Case reports reveal atypical presentations of osteomyelitis caused by Salmonella Typhi, indicating the need for heightened awareness in endemic regions.

Key Points

  • The study aims to highlight unusual musculoskeletal infections caused by Salmonella Typhi in immunocompetent individuals.
  • Two case reports of immunocompetent adults with musculoskeletal infections
  • Clinical examination and pus aspiration were performed to obtain samples
  • Microbiological culture and biochemical tests were conducted to identify the bacteria
  • Both patients presented with unique swelling and pain in different anatomical locations
  • Pus cultures identified Salmonella Typhi and showed antibiotic susceptibility to several drugs
  • Both patients had favorable outcomes after receiving appropriate antibiotic therapy
