  • Title: [Primary Salmonella vascular graft infection and conservative treatment].
    Author: Béraud G, Iba Ba J, Legout L, Senneville E, Yazdanpanah Y, Mouton Y.
    Journal: Med Mal Infect; 2008 Dec; 38(12):671-3. PubMed ID: 18950972.
    Abstract:
    The authors report an unusual case of prosthetic vascular graft infection due to Salmonellatyphimurium. The initial treatment combined antibiotherapy and surgical replacement of the arteriovenous graft. The infection relapsed within 6 weeks and was successfully treated with antibiotics only. Five cases of vascular graft infection due to Salmonella have been reported so far, but only one occurred in a previously healthy man and was not related to local infection, but to bacteremic seeding. Specific features of vascular graft infection and importance of prevention are discussed.
