S. typhi infection rarely involves the genitourinary system. We report the first described case of acute epididymo-orchitis due to S. typhi in a 14-year-old boy from Bangladesh. A high index of suspicion should be maintained when evaluating patients coming from endemic countries also in case of unusual sites of infection.

Abstract
S. typhi infection rarely involves the genitourinary system. We report the first described case of acute epididymo-orchitis due to S. typhi in a 14-year-old boy from Bangladesh. A high index of suspicion should be maintained when evaluating patients coming from endemic countries also in case of unusual sites of infection.File in questo prodotto:
