Histologically different liver lesional patterns were observed: areas of centrilobular necrosis with intense congestion of liver sinusoids (which correspond to reddish areas) alternating with irregular areas of coagulative necrosis with intralesional presence of bacteria (whitish areas). A discreet suppurative infiltrate was also present. The lesion thus corresponded to necrotizing hepatitis<\/strong>.
\nThe massive release of hepatic origined bilirubin to the bloodstream, due to lesions described, explains the yellow discolouration of the carcass.<\/p>\n

Gram staining disclosed gram negative and gram positive bacili. The presence of gas bubbles (from the products of anaerobic fermenttion) and the result of Gram staining indicates a bacterial cause, probably of the genus Clostridium<\/em>, although a mixed infection cannot be excluded.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately only formaldehyde fixed samples were submitted and the etiology could not be confirmed through microbiological culture.<\/p>\n

\"<\/a>

Generalised jaundice.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Liver<\/a>

Liver aspect, friable to manipulation.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"When<\/a>

When sectioned gas bubbles and discoloration of the liver parenchyma were observed.<\/p><\/div>\n

Detail of the lesion in the liver parenchyma (once fixed in formalin): reddish areas, white areas and gas bubbles.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
