Acute pancreatitis with abscess formation is a rare complication among patients with scrub typhus. This paper reports a case of scrub typhus in a 75 years old man with acute pancreatitis with abscess formation and multiorgan failure. Abdominal computed tomography showed multiple infected pancreatic pseudocysts with periopancreatic infiltration. Multiorgan failure was successfully treated with doxycycline, ceftriaxone, and supportive management. The pancreatic abscess was successfully drained percutaneously and the sizes of pseudocysts decreased remarkably.展开更多

Our study was conducted on Swiss albino mice in order to know the effect of probiotics or biotherapeutic agents, and suggest the different therapeutic possibilities of intestinal complications related to the presence of Salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium; Reference strains, Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp, bulgaricus, Lactobacillus acidophilus and Lactobacillus paracasei in combination with Bifidobacterium sp. were tested for their health benefits. The number of Salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium decreases in intestine, in the stomach and in the liver for group 2, 3 in case of preventive treatment and group 4, 5 in case of a therapeutic treatment due to the use of a cuRure of probiotics, in comparison with group 1 where we recorded a high number. The bio-therapeutic treatment was finally confirmed by macroscopic and microscopic observations of different target organs before and after treatment for the experiment period.展开更多
