title: [Salmonella panama responsible for meningitis secondary to febrile gastroenteritis in a 3-month-old infant].
abstract: The authors report a case of meningitis following enteritis due to Salmonella Panama (group D). The severity of Salmonella infection is especially correlated with hematogenous dissemination, through a transitory lack of intestinal immunity. The limited efficacy of antibiotics in salmonellosis is responsible for an ambiguous preventive attitude towards salmonella meningitis.
