title: [Septic shock in a renal transplanted patient after consumption of uncooked pork meat].
abstract: Salmonellosis caused by Salmonella enteritidis is an acute and in most cases zoonotic disease, but chronic human carriers are also known. Mostly, affected persons recover without treatment, but severe complications occur occasionally. For the first time we report a case of probably food-borne invasive Salmonella enteritidis infection with septic shock in a patient with Tacrolimus treatment, 13 years after renal transplantation, probably acquired by uncooked ground pork meat.
