Abstract

A patient with Salmonella group D (Salmonella enteritidis) acute osteomyelitis of an operated femur is described. The patient failed to respond to chloramphenicol therapy and aztreonam therapy. The local infection that complicated the presence of a foreign body was eradicated only with the removal of the foreign body, an internal fixation plate.
