Abstract EN

Pyogenic infections of the sacroiliac joint are rare and usually caused by Staphylococcus aureus.

We describe a case of a 16 year-old gymnast who was subsequently diagnosed with Salmonella mbandaka sacroiliac osteomyelitis with adjacent psoas abscess and hepatitis one week after returning from a holiday in Crete.

This case highlights a rare presentation of a common travel-associated foodborne infection.
