title: [Clinical aspects of salmonellosis].
abstract: Salmonellosis includes two groups of diseases: typhoid fever and non-typhic infections. Epidemiological and clinical features are different in each group. Typhoid fever is a major health problem in developing countries. It realizes septicemia and endotoxinic symptoms, and has not to be forgotten when the patient is back from travelling. Non-typhic infections in most cases produce acute feverish diarrhea, conforming with collective food toxi-infection. Non digestive localizations are usually the fact of underlying diseases, and are able to kill the patient.
