What it is

Rare form of salmonellosis is a group of rare invasive salmonellosis that includes infection with Salmonella enterica typhoidal species (S. typhi and S. paratyphi) that results in enteric fever, and infection by invasive non-typhoidal species (typically strains of S. typhimurium and S. enteritidis) which have a high burden amongst immunocompromised or malnourished individuals, and results in bacteriemia, systemic febrile disease, and variable manifestations including lower respiratory tract infection and splenomegaly.
