Popis: | Salmonella arizona is known to cause infection in reptiles and other animals. Disseminated human infection is rare, except in the setting of a deficient immune system. The following is a unique account of disseminated infection including pericardial involvement. Unusual features include nonreptile vector transmission and eastern seaboard (rather than southwestern) locale. A comprehensive literature review of disseminated S arizona infections is presented describing the types of infection, sources of exposure, underlying conditions, locale, treatments, and outcomes. |
