Clinical manifestations vary depending on the pathologic organism and on the level of GI tract involved. However, gastroenteritis in adults is usually an acute, self-limiting, nonfatal disease producing diarrhea, abdominal discomfort (ranging from cramping to pain), nausea, and vomiting. Other possible signs and symptoms include fever, malaise, and borborygmi. In children, the elderly, and the debilitated, gastroenteritis produces the same symptoms, but these patients’intolerance to electrolyte and fluid losses leads to a higher mortality.

Infected patients often have fever, leukopenia, hepatosplenomegaly, and abdominal distention. Diarrhea can occur, but because the bacteria is invasive and does not reside long in the gastrointestinal tract, constipation can also be noted. “Rose spots” represent embolic salmonella to the skin and are rare in children. A major issue in typhoid fever is early consideration. Typhoid fever should be considered in any child with a fever and recent travel to an endemic area. This is particularly true if the child has hepatosplenomegaly, leukopenia, and negative malarial smears. Typhoid fever is frequently misdiagnosed as malaria because the endemic regions are similar and both may present with high, spiking fever.
