MELLADO-FERREIRO, M.; JARNE-BETRAN, V.; ARTEAGA-MAZUELAS, M.  e  ABINZANO-GUILLEN, M.L.. Chronic salmonella typhimurium diarrhea in an immunocompetent patient. Anales Sis San Navarra [online]. 2016, vol.39, n.1, pp.139-141. ISSN 1137-6627.

Chronic diarrhea caused by infection in immunocompetent patients is an infrequent condition in developed countries, although certain pathogens, generally parasites (Giardia lamblia, Isospora belli, Cryptosporidium, Cyclospora, Strongyloides, Ameba, Trichuris and Schistosoma) and some bacteria (Aeromonas, Plesiomonas, Campylobacter, Clostridium difficile, Salmonella or Mycobacterium tuberculosis) can cause persistent diarrhea. We present the case of a patient who showed Salmonella typhimurium in his stool culture and recovered following treatment with levofloxacin for 7 days.
