Rhabdomyolysis as a complication has rarely been reported, and never in a child. A child with Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi septicemia, complicated by rhabdomyolysis, encephalopathy and pancreatitis is described and all 15 reported cases to date are summarized.L6156668222017-05-01 | DOI: | 10.1097/INF.0000000000001616 | Resources: | https://www.embase.com/search/results?subaction=viewrecord&id=L615666822&from=exporthttp://dx.doi.org/10.1097/INF.0000000000001616 | | Keywords: | drug substitution;female;human;morbidity;nonhuman;pancreatitis;priority journal;review;rhabdomyolysis;school child;septicemia;travel;typhoid fever;Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi;acicloviramoxicillin;azithromycin;cefotaxime;ceftriaxone;ciprofloxacin;vancomycin;acute kidney failure;antibiotic sensitivity;antibiotic therapy;bacterium isolation;blood culture;brain disease;case report;child;childhood mortality;clinical article;developing country | Type: | Article |
