From the *Department of Emergency Medicine, Lady Cilento Chidlren's Hospital, †Department of General Paediatrics, Lady Cilento Children's Hospital, and ‡Faculty of Paediatrics, University of Queensland, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia; §Royal Belfast Hospital for Sick Children, Belfast, Northern Ireland; and ¶Infection Management and Prevention Service, Lady Cilento Children's Hospital, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.
Typhoid fever is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in the developing world, particularly in children, but is infrequently observed in the developed world and can occur in patients without a significant travel history. Rhabdomyolysis as a complication has rarely been reported, and never in a child. A child with Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi septicemia, complicated by rhabdomyolysis, encephalopathy and pancreatitis is described and all 15 reported cases to date are summarized.
