[Morphology of infectious-toxic shock in salmonellosis]

Clinico-morphological data on a severe course of salmonellosis (Stenley Salmonella) with the development of the infectious-toxic shock are presented. The shock was manifested by changes of the microcirculatory bed with the development of disseminated intra vascular blood coagulation (DIBC), brain and lung oedema as well as degenerative and necrobiotic lesions of the inner organs (acute tubular renal necrosis, necrobiosis and necrosis of the gastrointestinal tract epithelium, necrobiotic processes in the adrenal parenchyma, neuronal lysis etc.) as a consequence of circulatory disturbances determining the severity of the course and outcome of the disease. The possibility of a protracted course of the DIBS-syndrome as the main component of the infectious-toxic shock is shown and pathogenetically grounded.
