Nontyphoid salmonella urinary tract infections.
Urinary tract infection caused by nontyphoid salmonella is rare. A case is described in a patient with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome who had multiple recurrences. A review of cases in which salmonella involved the urinary tract indicates that this infection usually occurs in patients who are structurally or immunologically compromised. Recurrence is expected and treatment plan should include an extended course of antibiotic therapy.
