    Yersinia enterocolitica infections can cause various symptoms, including enteric illness, and sometimes ocular and joint issues. Early diagnosis and treatment may improve outcomes for patients with this bacterial infection.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Infectious Diseases
    • Microbiology
    • Clinical Medicine

    Background:

    • Yersinia enterocolitica is a bacterial pathogen known to cause gastrointestinal illness.
    • The spectrum of disease presentation can vary, particularly in pediatric populations.

    Observation:

    • Five pediatric patients presented with Yersinia enterocolitica infections at Children's Hospital National Medical Center.
    • Four patients exhibited primarily enteric symptoms, while one case involved ocular and joint manifestations.
    • The infection was self-limiting in three out of five cases.

    Findings:

    • Antibiotic therapy may have contributed to disease improvement in two patients.
    • Yersinia enterocolitica can manifest in diverse clinical syndromes beyond typical gastroenteritis.
