Sumario:This case report presents the first cases of Sphingomonas paucimobilis in Turkey, which was isolated and identified from two cows, a calf and a lamb by conventional methods, VITEK Compaq® 2 system and Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). Compatible findings were reached among clinical history, necropsy findings and bacteriologic results. In conclusion, S. paucimobilis should be considered as a causative agent particularly for respiratory diseases, septicemia and foot infections with resistance to antibiotic treatment. Also, detection methods must be arranged not only for common pathogens but also for S. paucimobilis.
