We herein reported an uncommon case of thoracic spondylitis caused by Salmonella enteritidis.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n<jats:title>Case presentation<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>A 68-year-old man with high fever was diagnosed as salmonella septicemia initially. His condition was improved after antibacterial treatment. But the symptom of pyrexia was recurred after some days. He was then diagnosed with thoracic spondylitis caused by salmonella enteritidis. After that, he was put on strict antibiotic treatment, and underwent intervertebral lesion debridement, partial rib resection, intervertebral bone fusion and pedicle screw internal fixation. Subsequently, the patient had a significant relief in pain, temperature remained normal, and had no severe complications.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n<jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>Special attention should be paid to systemic pain and remain cautious to the occurrence of osteomyelitis in patients with Salmonella septicemia. Moreover, the treatment time for using sensitive antibiotics should be sufficient. Surgical treatment should be considered if strict conservative treatment is failed.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s12893-020-00841-5","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,7]],"date-time":"2020-08-07T07:03:29Z","timestamp":1596783809000},"update-policy":"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Salmonella enteritis spondylitis of thoracic spine: a case report and review of the literature"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"20","author":[{"given":"Mengmeng","family":"Chen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ruideng","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jianlin","family":"Shan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hai","family":"Tang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,7]]},"reference":[{"issue":"940","key":"841_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"110","DOI":"10.1136\/pmj.2002.002592","volume":"80","author":"SK Gupta","year":"2004","unstructured":"Gupta SK, Pandit A, White DG.
