SUMMARY: Severe granulomatous lesions in cervical muscles and lymph nodes, associated with the use of an oil‐based erysipelas vaccine, caused considerable economic loss at slaughter in 1400 pigs from the one herd. The condition was reproduced experimentally using the same vaccine, and in a less severe form with another commercially available oil‐based erysipelas vaccine.
