Bacillary and Amebic Dysentery 2 Ruili Li, Hongjun Li, and Zheng Qi Dysentery is an intestinal infectious disease caused by dysentery bacillus. Clinically, it is characterized by abdominal pain, tenesmus, bloody purulent stool, and frequent bowel movements. The disease commonly occurs in summers and autumns.

With assistance of positive etiological findings, the definitive diagnosis can be made, especially findings of Bacillus anthracis by direct smear or bacteria culture. 1 Cutaneous Anthrax Cutaneous anthrax should be differentiated from special responses following smallpox vaccination. The cases of special responses following smallpox vaccination have a history of vaccination. 1 Upper Respiratory Tract Infection Pulmonary anthrax in its early stage has similar symptoms to upper respiratory tract infection.

5 Intussusception In the cases of bacillary dysentery, frequent diarrhea can cause rhythm disturbance of peristalsis and more active peristalsis. The risk factors, such as structural abnormality, thin and long mesentery at the ileocecal junction in children, immature development and fixation, and large degree of ileocecal movement, cause the occurrence of intussusception. It can also be complicated by acute abdominal diseases such as intestinal perforation and appendicitis. 6 Other Complications 1.
