dc.description.abstract | A high proportion of the patients with Salmonella enterica serotype Typhi infection develop severe
sepsis. The mortality rate is high despite aggressive antimicrobial therapy in these patients. The case of a 10-year-old
boy who developed thrombocytopenia-associated multiple
organ failure (TAMOF) secondary to S. typhi infection is
reported. The patient did not respond to antimicrobial
treatment, including ciprofloxacin, in addition to conventional supportive measures, so plasma exchange was performed. The thrombocytopenia and organ failure had
resolved after 3 days of plasma exchange therapy. Plasma
exchange is suggested to be a life-saving intervention in a
child with TAMOF secondary to S. typhi infection. Key
