Salmonella infection and pneumonia in a patient with kyphoscoliosis.
Pulmonary involvement is an uncommon extraintestinal manifestation of salmonellosis. We describe a 30 year old man with mental retardation, presenting with salmonella gastroenteritis and bacteremia. An early pneumonia evolving in the clinical setting of severe kyphoscoliosis, suggests that hematogenous spread to the lungs may occur as a result of abnormalities of the chest wall.

Sequential levels of ceftriaxone in intervertebral disc removed as part of scoliosis surgery.
A single intravenous loading dose of 1 g ceftriaxone was injected at different intervals before surgery for correction of spinal scoliosis. Serum and concomitant disc samples were obtained and assay was performed using high-pressure liquid chromatography. Data showed that the antibiotic levels in intervertebral disc space reached 3.5 mcg/mg, which is above the minimum inhibitory concentration for most of the relevant pathogens, as early as 1 hour after intravenous administration. These therapeutic levels were maintained for more than 5 hours, an accepted period for most spinal surgical procedures.
