Pyonephrosis Caused by Salmonella Typhi: A Case Report.
[typhoid]
Introduction
:
Salmonella
is
a
rare
cause
of
urinary
tract
infections
.
We
report
here
a
unique
case
of
pyonephrosis
due
to
Salmonella
Typhi
(
S
.
Typhi
)
complication
,
a
stone-related
obstructive
pyelonephritis
.
Case
Report
:
A
47
-
year
-old
man
,
without
any
history
of
typhoid
fever
or
gastrointestinal
symptoms
,
presented
with
a
pyonephrosis
and
life-threatening
bacteremia
following
an
acute
obstructive
right
pyelonephritis
caused
by
S
.
Typhi
.
The
patient
was
treated
by
urinary
drainage
(
ureteral
stent
)
,
antibiotics
,
and
delayed
right
nephrectomy
.
We
postulated
that
urolithiasis
could
explain
asymptomatic
chronic
urinary
carriage
of
S
.
Typhi
.
Conclusion
:
S
.
Typhi
is
one
possible
cause
of
life-threatening
urinary
tract
infection
,
especially
in
the
context
of
urolithiasis
.
