The prevalence of nalidixic acid-resistant
Salmonella
Typhi(NARST) infection is increasing worldwide. We
are reporting an unusual case of infected haematocolpos presenting as urinary obstruction in a patient with
fever of unknown origin (FUO). This case report highlights the importance of quinolone-resistant typhoid
fever in the differential diagnosis of any acute febrile illness in countries, like India, where
Salmonella infection
is endemic.
