Salmonella colitis is an ulcerative colitis that can be hemorrhagic. Symptoms of Salmonella colitis include the following:

  • bloody diarrhea
  • abdominal cramping
  • mucosal edema
  • hyperemia
  • petechial hemorrhage
  • aphthous erosions
  • ulcerations.

Complications of Salmonella colitis include toxic magacolon and spontaneous perforation, either of which can cause death. Severe cases can require a colectomy (surgery to remove part of the colon (large intestine)) and ileostomy (surgical opening constructed by bringing the end or loop of small intestine (the ileum) out onto the surface of the skin). People with ileostomies must use an ostomy pouch to collect intestinal waste.

Salmonella colitis occurs in about 10% of Salmonella victims.
