Abstract
Typhoid fever is a fundamental irresistible illness of worldwide conveyance brought about by Salmonella Typhi. It is perhaps the most well-known bacterial reasons for intense febrile ailment in the creating scene. A complete analysis of typhoid fever is made by hemoculture just as the Widal test. USG is one of the demonstrative devices. The current examination was led to break down the handiness of USG in the determination of typhoid fever. This cross sectional examination was done on 50 pediatric patients matured 5-15 years who were clinically suspected to have typhoid fever. Blood tests of patients exposed to blood culture and Widal test and USG was acted in all patients. out of 50 patients Males were 27 cases and females were 23 cases. Out of 50 patients, 50 cases demonstrated splenomegaly on day 5 which diminished to 39 cases on day 10 and diminished to 29 cases on day 15. Hepatomegaly was available in 20 cases on day 5 at that point diminished to 7 cases on day 10 at that point got negative on day 15. Mesenteric lymphadenopathy was available in 21 cases on day 5 at that point diminished to 11 cases on day 10 at that point diminished to 6 cases on day 15. Acalculus cholecystitis was available in 15 cases on day 5 at that point diminished to 9 cases on tenth day at that point perished to 5 cases on fifteenth day. Gut thickening was in 12 cases on day 5 at that point diminished to 7 cases on day 10 at that point got negative on day 15. USG is one of the solid indicative instruments in recognition of typhoid fever in youngsters. Highlights, for example, hepatomegaly, Splenomegaly, mesentric lymphadenopathy, acalculus cholecystitis and entrail thickening ought to be considered for the analysis of typhoid fever.
