Bacillary Dysentery
Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli (EIEC) Gram-negative rod.
Seldom seen in the US and most frequently linked to illness in poorer nations
Manifestation
Clinical Dysentery.
Pathophysiology
Colonic epithelial cells are invaded by EIEC, which causes inflammation and cell death.
The disease process is strikingly similar to Shigella.
Illness is self-limiting.
