Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Osteoarticular infections caused by Salmonella enterica subsp. arizonae are rarely seen in humans but young children and immunocompromised adults are at particular risk of acquiring this bacteria. Reptiles and their by-products (e.g. meat preparations or medications) are particularly likely to harbor Salmonella. We report on a case of septic arthritis of the hip transmitted by a reptile in a 10-month-old child. We carry out a recall of the complex nomenclature of Salmonella, a review of the literature and provide information on the recommended precautions for reducing the risk of transmission of Salmonella from reptiles to humans. |
