چکیده
|
Typhoid is endemic in many parts of southeast asia. due to the resistance of the organism to first line of antibiotics (ampicillin,chloramphenicol,cotrimoxazole) as well as to fluoroquinolones,third generation cephalosporins have been in use for the empiric treatment of typhoid for years. however an increasing incidence of salmonella typhi is being reported sporadically from various regions. we report a case of typhoid due to salmonella typhi which was non-responsive to treatment with a cephalosporin,was found to be multidrug resistant and resistant to ciprofloxacin and third generation cephalosporin as well. the patient was finally treated successfully with intravenous administration of a carbapenem. © 2016,pakistan medical association. all rights reserved.
