Salmonella enterica subspecies enterica serovar Choleraesuis is rarely detected in Europe, but the clinical
disease has been reported in wild boars. We describe here the clinical findings, pathologic changes, and microbiologic features
of swine salmonellosis caused by S. enterica serovar Choleraesuis in weaned piglets in Serbia. In April 2019, on a large
farrow-to-finish pig farm, increased mortality was reported in weaned piglets, marked by lethargy, anorexia, pyrexia, and
respiratory distress. Gross pathology revealed dermal cyanosis, mesenteric lymphadenopathy, splenomegaly, hepatomegaly,
interstitial pneumonia, and colitis. By direct culturing of lung, liver, spleen, and lymph nodes, S. enterica ser. Choleraesuis
variant Kunzendorf was isolated after years of absence of the disease in pig farms in Europe. The source of this salmonellosis
outbreak caused by S. enterica ser. Choleraesuis remains unknown.
