Abstract:
We report a case of severe urinary tract infection caused by Shigella sonnei in a 3-year-old girl with vesico-ureteric reflux and no history of dysentery. Treatment with co-trimoxazole in a dose of 48 mg/kg for 10 days was given and the infection was eradicated. Possible sources of infection are discussed.
