Abstract
We report two cases of patients with extensively drug-resistant Salmonella Typhi infection who had recently traveled to Pakistan. These cases suggest that obtaining a detailed travel history and considering the epidemiology of drug-resistant S. Typhi in the suspected area of acquisition is crucial for managing patients with typhoid fever.
