SALMONELLA TYPHOID FEVER
CLASSIFICATION OF SALMONELLA • According to their ecologic niches • Serotyping [kanfmann white] • O antigen A-I • H antigen (subtypes) * Over 2000 serotypes
Spectrum of clinical manifestations of salmonella • Gastroenteritis • Enteric fever • Bacteremia • With metastatic disease • Without metastatic disease • Asymptomatic carrier state
S. PATHOGENESIS • ID 10ˆ6 – 10ˆ9 • Penetration of the distal ileum mucosa • Multiplication in the payer patches • Diarrhea is caused by: • Prostlaglandin Induced ˆ (c-AMP) • Local Inflamatory rasponce • S. enterotoxin
TYPHOID FEVER(Enteric Fever) • Definition: A disease characterized by prolonged fever, abdominal pain, diarrhea, delirium, rash (rose spots) & splenomegally. • Etiology: Salmonella Typhi & paratyphi A & B-A motile gram-negative bacilli, which possess: • H-Antigen (associated with flagella) • O-Antigen (a LPS associated with cell wall) • VI-Antigen (a PS associated with cell capsule)
EPIDEMIOLOGY OF TYPHOID FEVER • It affects all age groups. • No sex difference. • Common in developing countries. • Infecting dose 7x10(6) in Africa, Asia & Latin America. • Transmission is through Oral-fecal route. • Affected individuals may become asymptomatic carriers particularly females & older males (Underlying cholecystitis). • S-Typhi is resistant to drying & cooling.
SIGNS & SYMPTOMS(cont,) ______________________________________ Symptoms Signs Pathology _____________________________________________________________ 3rd wk Intestinal Melena Ulcerations, perforation bleeding, per- rigid abdomen with peritonitis. foration & shock ileus, coma ____________________________________________________________ 4th week Resolution Recurrence Cholecystitis, chronic & later relapse of acute fecal carriage of bacteria weight loss disease, cachexia.
ANTIBIOTIC USED FOR SALMONELLA TYPHI • Chloramphenicol • Ampicillin, Amoxil • Co-trimoxazole • 3rd generation cephalosporins • Quinolones
PROGNOSIS • Case fatality dropped 12% to 4% • It is still +\- 10% in developing countries • Perforation +\- 5% • Chronic fecal carriers 1-3%
VACCINATION FOR S.TYPHI • Inativated S.typhi: • 2 SC injections: • 55-88% protection for 3-5yr. • Attenuated S.typhi: • Liquid 3 doses • Enteric coated capsules • Protection 60-70%
LEISHMANIASIS It is the result of the infection with one of or other species of protozoa (leishmania). Conveyed by: Sandflies (Phlebotomus). Visceral Leishmaniasis: L. donovani Mucocutaneous : L. Braziliensis
Cutaneous : L.tropica major L. tropica minor New World : L. Braziliensis L. Mexicana Old world
PATHOLOGY » L. donovani parasitizes the reticu. endoth. cells » Great proliferation of macrophage » Cells result: Liver – spleen enlarg. » The red bone marrow extend. »
CLINICAL PICTURE • Incubation: 2 weeks – 18 months early stages is not easy for diagnose. There is no constant physical signs. BP , Pulse , - Fever ☺ Changes in the blood picture particularly Leucopenia. ☺ Outstanding physical sign is the enlargement of the spleen 3 cm. a month.
● Liver : enlarged spleen + liver are neither tender nor painful. ● Sometimes: Jaundice = prognost. Significance ● Enlarged : Lymph node, could be but its not a feature of the disease. ● Wasting : Emaciated pat with a protuberant
