Abstract:
The nosoparasitic form of salmonellosis occurs not only in cases of the association of salmonellosis with infectious diseases, but also in noninfectious patients, mostly in oncological and hematological cases. The appearance of the nosoparasitic form of salmonellosis was observed in 9 patients; of these, 5 with leukosis, 2 with malignant tumors, 1 with erythremia and 1 with cytostatic disease. Concomitant Salmonella infection contributed to the aggravation of the main disease. In 6 out of 9 cases patients with the nosoparasitic form of salmonellosis remained in oncological and hematological hospitals, and no cases of hospital infection were registered. Immunodeficiency played an important role in the development of the nosoparasitic form of salmonellosis in these patients.
