Nontyphoidal salmonellosis causes significant morbidity, is transmitted via fecal-oral route, and is a worldwide cause of gastroenteritis, bacteremia, and local infections. Salmonella is a less common etiologic factor for septic arthritis compared with other gram-negative bacteria.<jats:italic>Cases<\/jats:italic>. We present two septic arthritis cases with<jats:italic>Salmonella enteridis<\/jats:italic>as a confirmed pathogen and also discuss the predisposing factors and treatment.<jats:italic>Discussion<\/jats:italic>. Septic arthritis is an orthopedic emergency. The gold standard treatment of septic arthritis is joint debridement, antibiotic therapy according to the culture results, and physiotherapy, which should start in the early postoperative period to prevent limitation of motion.<jats:italic>Salmonella<\/jats:italic>is an atypical agent for septic arthritis. It must be particularly kept in mind as an etiologic factor for the acute arthritis of a patient with sickle cell anemia and systemic lupus erythematosus. Clinicians should be cautious that the white blood cell count in synovial fluid can be under 50.000\/mm<jats:sup>3<\/jats:sup>in immune compromised individuals with septic arthritis. The inflammatory response can be deficient, or the microorganism may be atypical.<jats:italic>Conclusion<\/jats:italic>. Atypical bacteria such as Salmonella species in immune compromised patients can cause joint infections. Therefore, Salmonella species must always be kept in mind for the differential diagnosis of septic arthritis in a clinically relevant setting.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2013\/642805","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,10,22]],"date-time":"2013-10-22T17:43:42Z","timestamp":1382463822000},"page":"1-3","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["<i>Salmonella enteridis<\/i>Septic Arthritis: A Report of Two Cases"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2013","author":[{"given":"Esat","family":"Uygur","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology, Istanbul Medeniyet University, G\u00f6ztepe Training and Research Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Krishna","family":"Reddy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Royal Orthopaedic Hospital, Birmigham, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Feyza \u00dcnl\u00fc","family":"\u00d6zkan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation, Fatih Sultan Mehmet Training and Research Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Salih","family":"S\u00f6ylemez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology, Istanbul Medeniyet University, G\u00f6ztepe Training and Research Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"\u00d6zlem","family":"Aydin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Infectious Diseases, Istanbul Medeniyet University, G\u00f6ztepe Training and Research Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Serkan","family":"\u015eenol","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, Istanbul Medeniyet University, G\u00f6ztepe Training and Research Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"98","reference":[{"key":"1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/JB.01730-06"},{"issue":"2","key":"2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"263","DOI":"10.1086\/318457","volume":"32","year":"2001","journal-title":"Clinical Infectious Diseases"},{"issue":"4","key":"3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"304","DOI":"10.1080\/00365540410021171-1","volume":"37","year":"2005","journal-title":"Scandinavian Journal of Infectious Diseases"},{"key":"4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/jor.1100150619"},{"key":"5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s002640100226"},{"issue":"3","key":"6","first-page":"168","volume":"28","year":"1999","journal-title":"American Journal of Orthopedics"},{"issue":"2","key":"7","first-page":"489","volume":"12","year":"1986","journal-title":"Clinics in Rheumatic Diseases"},{"key":"8","first-page":"223","volume":"159","year":"1981","journal-title":"Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research"},{"key":"9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/j.jfas.2011.04.039"},{"key":"10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1756-185X.2009.01440.x"},{"issue":"257","key":"11","first-page":"226","year":"1990","journal-title":"Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research"}],"container-title":["Case Reports in Infectious Diseases"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/criid\/2013\/642805.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/criid\/2013\/642805.xml","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/criid\/2013\/642805.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2017,6,21]],"date-time":"2017-06-21T20:25:36Z","timestamp":1498076736000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.hindawi.com\/journals\/criid\/2013\/642805\/"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2013]]},"references-count":11,"alternative-id":["642805","642805"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1155\/2013\/642805","relation":{},"ISSN":["2090-6625","2090-6633"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2090-6625","type":"print"},{"value":"2090-6633","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2013]]}}}
