[Hemolytic anemia associated with minor salmonellosis in an HIV positive, G6PD deficient Congolese woman].

Haemolytic anaemia in G6PD-deficient patients with thyphoid fever is well known, but there is only one case-report associated with non-typhic salmonella fever. We report here a case observed in a black african young woman whose HIV infection has been discovered on this occasion. Because of the high prevalence of HIV infection, salmonellosis and G6PD deficiency in sub-saharian Africa, an increasing number of such haemolytic anaemias should be expected in this geographic area.
