Presentation Transcript

  1. TYPHOID

  2. Definition of Typhoid fever • Acute enteric infectious disease • caused by Salmonella typhi (S.Typhi). • prolonged fever, Relative bradycardia, apathetic facial expressions,roseola,splenomegaly,hepatomegaly,leukopenia. • intestinal perforation, intestinal hemorrhage

  3. Etiology Serotype: D group of Salmonella Gram-negative rod non-spore flagella Culture characteristics

  4. Antigens: located in the cell capsule H (flagellar antigen). O (Somatic or cell wall antigen). Vi (polysaccharide virulence)

  5. A schematic diagram of a single Salmonella typhi cell showing the locations of the H (flagellar), 0 (somatic), and Vi (K envelope) antigens.

  6. Endotoxin • Resistance: Live 2-3 weeks in water. 1-2 months in stool. Die out quickly in summer Resistance to drying and cooling

  7. Source of infection Cases and chronic carriersCases discharge from incubation, more in 2~4 weeks after onset, a few (about 2~5%) last longer than 3 months chronic carriers.

  8. Transmission fecal-oral route close contact with patients or carriers contaminated water and food flies and cockroaches.

  9. Pathogenesis • gastrointestinal tract host-pathogen interactions • The amount of bacilli infection (>105baeteria).

  10. ingested orally • Stomach barrier (some Eliminated) • enters the small intestine Penetrate the mucus layer  enter mononuclear phagocytes of ileal peyer's patches and mesenteric lymph nodes  proliferate in mononuclear phagocytes spread to blood. initial bacteremia (Incubation period). Pathogenesis

  11. Pathogenesis enter spleen, liver and bone marrow (reticulo-endothelial system) further proliferation occurs  A lot of bacteria enter blood again. (second bacteremia).  Recovery

  12. Bac. In gall Bac. In feces S.Typhi eliminated convalvescence stage (4-5w) peyer's patches & mesenteric lymph nodes S.Typhi. liver、spleen、gall、 BM ,ect early stage&acme stage (1-3W） 2nd bacteremia stomach (mononuclear phagocytes) Lower ileum 1st bacteremia (Incubation stage) 10-14d LN Proliferate,swell necrosis defervescence stage （3-4w） thoracic duct Enterorrhagia,intestinal perforation

  13. Pathology • essential lesion: proliferation of RES (reticuloendothelial system ) specific changes in lymphoid tissues and mesenteric lymph nodes."typhoid nodules“ • Most characteristic lesion: ulceration of mucous in the region of the Peyer’s patches of the small intestine

  14. PEYER’S PATCHES

  15. TYPHOID NODULE

  16. Major findings in lower ileum • Hyperplasia stage(1st week): swelling lymphoid tissue and proliferation of macrophages. • Necrosis stage(2nd week): necrosis of swelling lymph nodes or solitary follicles.

  17. Major findings in lower ileum • Ulceration stage(3rd week): shedding of necrosis tissue and formation of ulcer ----- intestinal hemorrhage, perforation . • Stage of healing (from 4th week): healing of ulcer, no cicatrices and no contraction

  18. Clinical manifestations Incubation period: 3～60 days(7～14). The initial period (early stage) • First week. • Insidious onset. • Fever up to 39~400C in 5~7 days • chills、ailment、tired、sore throat、cough ,abdominal discomfort .

  19. The fastigiumsatge • second and third weeks. • Sustained high fever、partly remittent fever or irregular fever. Last 10～14 days. • Gastro-intestinal symptoms: anorexia、abdominal distension or pain、diarrhea or constipation • Neuropsychiatric manifestations: confusion、blunt respond even delirium and coma .

  20. Circulation system: relative bradycardia or dicrotic pulse. • splenomegaly、hepatomegaly toxic hepatitis. • roseola :30%, maculopapular rash a faint pale color, slightly raised round or lenticular, fade on pressure 2-4 mm in diameter, less than 10 in number on the trunk, disappear in 2-3 days.

  21. fatal complications: intestinal hemorrhage intestinal perforation severe toxemia

  22. defervescence stage • fever and most symptoms resolve by the forth week of infection. • Fever come down, gradual improvement in all symptoms and signs, but still danger. convalescence stage • the fifth week. disappearance of all symptoms, but can relapse

  23. Clinical forms: • Mild infection symptom and signs mild good general condition temperature is 380C

  24. Persistent infection: diseases continue than 5 weeks • Ambulatory infection: mild symptoms,early intestinal bleeding or perforation.

  25. Fulminate infection: rapid onset, severe toxemia and septicemia. High fever,chill,circulation failure, shock, delirium, coma, myocarditis, bleeding and other complications, DIC et all.

  26. relapse • serum positive of S.typhi after 1～3 weeks . • Symptom and signs reappear • the bacilli have not been completely removed • Some cases relapse more than once

  27. Laboratory findings Routine examinations: white blood cell count is normal or decreased. Leukocytopenia(specially eosinophilicleukocytopenia).

  28. Bacteriological examinations: • Blood culture: the most common use80~90% positive during the first 2 weeks of illness 50% in 3rd week

  29. The bone marrow culture • Urine and stool culturesstool culture better in 3~4 weeks

  30. Serological testsAntigens:somatic antigen(O), flagella(H) antigen,

  31. "O" agglutinin antibody titer ≥1:80 and "H" ≥1:160 or "O" 4 times higher supports a diagnosis of typhoid fever • "O" rises alone, not "H", early of the disease.Only "H" positive, but "O" negative, often nonspecifically elevated by immunization or previous infections . • Antibody level maybe lower when have used antibiotics early.

  32. Molecular biological tests: DNA probe or polymerase chain reaction (PCR)

  33. Complications INTESTINAL HAEMORRAGE INTESTINAL PERFORATION TOXIC HEPATITIS TOXIC MYOCARDITIS BRONCHITIS,BROCHOPNEUMONIA

  34. Other complications: • toxic encephalopathy. • Hemolytic uremic syndrome. • acute cholecystitis、 • meningitis、 • nephritis et al.

  35. Diagnosis • Epidemiology data • Typical symptoms and signs • Laboratory findings.
