Abstract
We report a case of non-typhi Salmonella adrenal abscess in a patient with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and thalassaemia minor. Non-typhi Salmonella bacteraemia is common in HIV-infected patients, but infection localized in the adrenal gland is rare. Focal salmonellosis is common in haemoglobinopathy but unusual in thalassaemia minor. This patient was diagnosed by computed tomography (CT) guided aspiration and successfully treated with ciprofloxacin.
