Abstrakt: | Salmonellae , considered among the enteric-fever-causing pathogens, is associated with a range of human infections, including gastroenteritis, bacteremia, and osteomyelitis.

Here, we present a rare case of a patient presenting with severe acute active ileitis and colitis mimicking Crohn's disease with no prior history of inflammatory bowel disease and found to have Salmonella group B bacteremia.
