Abstract
Enteric fever is caused by Salmonella typhi and Salmonella paratyphi A and B, which can present clinically with variety of symptoms. We report a case of a middle-aged gentleman with salmonella infection who developed reversible corpus callosum splenium infarcts, which is an unusual presentation of enteric fever. The condition was reversed with antibiotics routinely used to treat enteric fever in the country.
