Abstract
Two cases of Salmonella spondylitis with unusual features appeared in patients who have no sickle cell disease and no history of typhoid fever. One case presented with paraparesis, was misdiagnosed and originally treated for Pott's disease. The other case was diagnosed correctly by specific laboratory tests, but failed to respond to the conventionally accepted conservative antibiotic treatment and required surgical excision and drainage. Salmonella spondylitis with paraparesis may not have been reported heretofore.
