Non-typhoid salmonella infections are extremely common, usually taking the form of a benign toxi-infection. In the context of the rare extra-digestive manifestations, the authors report 3 cases of pleuro-pulmonary involvement, in infections due to Salmonella Dublin. In 2 cases, the organism was identified from blood cultures, whilst in the 3rd case it was isolated from pleural fluid. As with other extra-digestive sites, pleuro-pulmonary involvement is favored by underlying pathology, accounting for the grave nature of the problem (amongst the 3 cases, gastrectomy and acute myeloblastic leukemia in one case and obliterative arterial disease in another case). Non-typhoid salmonella infections are sensitive to Sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim which diffuses well in the respiratory system. They are also sensitive to Amoxicillin and to Chloramphenicol.
