Simple Summary: This case report describes the first case of caseous lymphadenitis in a roe deer (Capreolus capreolus, Linnaeus 1758) found dead in Italy, attributable to Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis isolated from abscessual and non-abscessual lesions of the lungs and lymph nodes. In addition, histological examinations revealed a severe parasitological infestation by bronchopulmonary larvae at various stages of development. These findings raise the possibility of the reservoir-like role of cervids for C. pseudotubercolosis and the potential implications related as much to wildlife conservation as to pathologies at the domestic/wildlife interface. Caseous lymphadenitis is a chronic debilitating disease typical of small ruminants, but it is also noted in several other domestic and wild species. In this report, we present the first documented case in Italy of pseudotuberculosis in a roe deer (Capreolus capreolus, Linnaeus 1758) found dead in the mountains of Forlì-Cesena province, Emilia Romagna region. The carcass underwent necropsy according to standard protocols, revealing generalized lymphadenopathy and severe apostematous pneumonia with multifocal and encapsulated abscesses. Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis was isolated from the lung parenchyma, lymph nodes and abscesses. Additionally, severe parasitic bronchopneumonia of the caudal lobes and gastrointestinal strongyle infestation were detected. To our knowledge, this is the first documented case of CLA referable to C. pseudotubercolosis in a roe deer in Italy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
