ABSTRACT

Typhoid fever is a systemic infectious disease which affects many organs. In children, few cases have been reported of acute nephritic syndrome in typhoid fever. We report an immunocompetent 9-year old girl with typhoid fever complicated by acute tubulointerstitial nephritis who presented with prolonged fever and acute renal failure.
