[Salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium infection presenting as a retrocecal mass in an 8-year-old child].

We report on a case of a clinically uncommon presentation of Salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium infection in an 8-year-old child who presented with acute abdominal pain. We discuss clinically uncommon presentations of salmonella disease in children, as well as its pathology and radiology.
