Cholecystitis and cholelithiasis are frequently met surgical conditions in North India. The presence of bacteria in bile at the time of surgery or invasive diagnostic procedures predisposes to complications like septicaemia. Aim of this study was to study the bacteriological profile -aerobic & anaerobic in the bile of patients undergoing cholecystectomy. The present study included 50 patients admitted in the department of general surgery undergoing cholecystectomy with preoperative diagnosis of biliary tract disease. Details of the operative findings were recorded. The bile from gallbladder was cultured for the presence of aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. The bacteriological examination of the bile yielded positive culture in 16 out of 50 cases (32%). Aerobic bactobilia was seen in 15 out of 16 patients (93.75%). Anaerobic bactobilia was seen in 4 out of 16 patients (25%). The infection was mostly due to single microorganism. In 9 out of 16 cases (56.25%) the growth was purely aerobic. E.Coli was the most commonly isolated aerobic bacteria (36%).

“…Nevertheless, they suggested that ampicillin was probably more effective than chloramphenicol in the treatment of carriers. In other reports, the results of treatment of salmonellosis and Salmonella carriers with ampicillin have been variable (Stewart, Coles, Nixon & Holt, 1961;Trafford, Maclaren, Lillicrap, Barnes, Houston & Knox, 1962;Ross, Lovrien, Zaremba, Bourgeois & Puig, 1962;Pettersson, 1964), and failure was often associated with gall-bladder disease and stones (Tynes & Utz, 1962;Bullock, 1963). The apparent discrepancy between the in vitro activity of ampicillin and the results of treatment is often difficult to explain.…”

We report an unusual case of Salmonella enterica serotype Typhi presenting as a primary psoas abscess. The isolate tested susceptible to ciprofloxacin but resistant to nalidixic acid in vitro, a pattern associated with fluoroquinolone therapeutic failures. We review the literature for serovar Typhi psoas abscess in the absence of bacteremia and discuss the importance of identifying isolates with reduced susceptibility to fluoroquinolones.
