Issue Date: | Oct-1994 | Citation: | Tan, H.C., Chan, R.K., Tan, W.C. (1994-10). Fatal haemoptysis in Salmonella typhimurium septicaemia--a cautionary tale.. Singapore Medical Journal 35 (5) : 525-526. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. | Abstract: | Septicaemia and mycotic aneurysm may occur in a patient who is an enteric-carrier of Salmonella typhimurium. We report such a case of an elderly man who presented with chest pain and fatal massive haemoptysis from a likely mycotic thoracic aneurysm. This report underscores the importance of increased awareness of the disease which may allow more frequent and earlier diagnosis. | Source Title: | Singapore Medical Journal | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/130907 | ISSN: | 00375675 |
