Overview

The sequence of events in the pathogenesis of typhoid fever include inoculation, gastrointestinal infection, systemic involvement, and chronic carrier state.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]

Pathogenesis

The pathogenesis of typhoid fever consists of the following sequence of events.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]

Innoculation

  • Orofecal transmission
  • Infective dose: 1000 to 1 million organisms

Gastrointestinal Infection

Stomach

  • Bacterium enters stomach
  • Can survive a pH as low as 1.5

Small intestine

  • Bacterium enters mucosa of the small intestine via M cells or direct penetration
  • Adherence to the mucosal cells via special proteins
  • Invade mucosal M cells overlying peyer's patches
  • Internalisation in M cells of ileum
  • Translocation to underlying lymphoid tissue and draining lymph nodes

Systemic spread

Chronic carrier state

  • Resides and multiplies in gall bladder
  • Excretion in urine and stool may infect other individuals
