In this report, the isolation of a Salmonella typhimurium strain as pure culture from abcess foci on the liver, spleen, kidney, stomach and intestines, and lungs of an 8-month-old, male, Thoroughbred foal, which had died in a racehorse breeding farm, is presented. Heavy respiratory infection and prolonged antibiotic therapy were considered to be stress factors that played a significant role in this case.
