A rare case of enteric and systemic Yersinia enterocolitica infection in a chronic, not iron-overloaded dialysis patient

We present herein a case of bacterial gastroenteritis due to <em>Yersinia</em> <em>enterocolitica</em>, occurred in a young woman undergoing haemodialysis with a previous history positive for prolonged (20 years) immunosuppressive therapy for glomerulonephritis before and for...
