Abstrakt: A 19-year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of persistent fever of >38°C for 6 days and diarrhea for 4 days. Initially, he was treated for infectious enteritis, but on his second day in the hospital, the two sets of blood cultures came back positive. Cultures from the blood and stool yielded Salmonella sp. (Group O4). The patient's symptoms improved after treatment with fluoroquinolone-based antimicrobial agents for 14 days. Cases of nontyphoidal Salmonella bacteremia are rare;therefore, we reported this case with bibliographic consideration of the risk factors for Salmonella bacteremia.
