Complications
Immunosuppressed people with this condition are more susceptible to sepsis, endocarditis, meningitis, and thrombophlebitis from the spread of the bacteria into their bloodstream.
Some patients will get a reactive arthritis called Reiter's syndrome after a campylobacter enteritis infection.
About 1 in 1,000 patients with campylobacter enteritis develop a nerve problem that results in paralysis, called Guillain-Barre syndrome. Paralysis associated with Guillain-Barre syndrome is usually temporary.
