Salmonella Reading is a rare serotype of Salmonella enterica and is associated with sporadic cases and rare outbreaks worldwide. This article describes a rare case of generalized Salmonella Reading infection imported from Indonesia to Moscow, Russia. A 37-year-old man was admitted to the hospital with fever, weakness, and headache after returning from Indonesia. During his stay in Indonesia, he developed symptoms of a gastrointestinal infection, which resolved there. However, upon return to Moscow, his condition worsened due to high fever, and he was diagnosed with a generalized salmonellosis caused by Salmonella Reading (positive blood and stool culture). This case highlights the importance of differential diagnosis in patients with fever. The health risks associated with traveling to exotic countries and the importance of preventive measures are emphasized. This is the first published case of Salmonella Reading in Eastern Europe.
