Abstract
Adult-onset immunodeficiency syndrome is characterized by the presence of anti-interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) autoantibody and the distribution of infections. Here, we describe Salmonella enterica bacteremia in a Thai woman who also had anti-IFN-γ autoantibody. The patient was also suffering from Salmonella osteomyelitis and a peri-orbital abscess. Her symptoms were completely eradicated after surgical intervention and the administration of appropriate antibiotics.
