Article Abstract
We report three cases of Salmonella typhi osteitis. One patient was an immunocompetent woman with a single focus of osteitis, another had heterozygous sickle cell disease with multifocal osteitis, and the remaining patient had acute discitis. Tuberculosis was considered in all three patients, based on origin from an endemic area (sub-Saharan Africa), a chronic course in the first two patients, and granulomas in a biopsy specimen from one patient.
