The incidence of Salmonella enteric infections in Gipuzkoa, Spain, was estimated by studying a stable population between 1983 and 2000. Only stool culture confirmed cases were included. The annual mean rate of infection in children under 2 years old was 1121 per 100,000 (CI 95%; 1060-1181).

Salmonella Enteritidis was the most prevalent serovar (80.4% of all patients), followed by Salmonella Typhimurium (11.7%).
