    Abstract:
    Acute typhoid fever, caused by the gram negative bacterium Salmonella typhi may have a wide spectrum of clinical presentation. We report a young boy with typhoid fever, who developed myocarditis and splenic abscess, two of the unusual complications in the course of the disease. Judicious use of corticosteroid and antibiotic helped in achieving a favourable outcome.
