Non-typhoidal Salmonella upper limb osteomyelitis and soft tissue abscess leading to a diagnosis of sickle cell anaemia

Recently arrived migrants may be oligosymptomatic and bear a burden of infectious/non-infectious diseases. A patient with no past medical history was diagnosed with non-typhoidal Salmonella osteomyelitis, sickle cell anemia, chronic hepatitis B infection, strongyloidiasis and schistosomiasis. Establishing diagnoses in vulnerable populations may not imply successful linkage to health care.
