“…The development of Salmonella gastroenteritis-related bacteremia is infrequent in children, but, if developed, Salmonella can spread and induce supportive focal lesions involving distant organs [20]. The disease is often associated with mild hepatomegaly and biochemical pancreatitis; however, severe hepatosplenomegaly and acute pancreatitis are aberrant findings in the pediatric population [21]. A study reported that the autopsy examination of patients who died from Salmonella food poisoning indicated profound disseminated interstitial pancreatitis [22], but pancreatitis might also be a result of multiorgan failure resulting from bacterial or endotoxin-induced shock.…”

Salmonella typhi infection can be associated with serious complications, ranging from self-limited to fulminant organ damage. In particular, liver and pancreatic damage may complicate the course of infection resulting in devastating outcomes. Enteric fever encompasses a tropical disease caused by Salmonella species and can be associated with high morbidity and mortality. Invasive infection rarely presents with acute hepatitis and pancreatitis. Early recognition of associated clinical conundrums can improve prognosis in affected patients. Here, we present a case of acute hepatitis and pancreatitis in an otherwise healthy child.

Background Salmonella infection presents itself in a wide variety of ways, ranging from mild self-limited illness to severe systemic disease with multiorgan involvement. Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a very rare complication that is associated with Salmonella infection, especially among the pediatric population. Case presentation A five-year-old boy presented with a two-day fever and experienced vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. The boy was admitted as a case of acute gastroenteritis, and Salmonella was found in his stool culture. The severity of his abdominal pain during his hospital stay indicated the possibility of AP. A clinical examination and blood workup were performed and showed significant elevation in amylase and lipase, which confirmed the diagnosis of AP. Conclusion Although abdominal pain is a common presentation of Salmonella infection, the possibility of AP must be considered when the pain is severe and the characteristics of the pain are suggestive of AP. Herein, we report a case of AP complicating Salmonella infection in an immunocompetent child.
