Özet
In this study, cases of necrobasillozis detected
in a sheep herd in Kars province were described.A total of 12 deaths were noted
in 2-4 month-old sheep in a herd containing 210 animals. Three of dead animals
were brought to Kafkas University Faculty of Veterinary Medicine Department of
Pathology for necropsying. Systemic necropsy was performed and tissue samples
were collected for histopathological and microbiological investigations. On
gross examination, yellow-white multifocal necrotic areas sizing up to 3 cm in
liver of one case, and up to 1 cm in lung of another animal were recognized. No
gross lesions were detected in the third animal. In microscopic examination of
these two cases in which lesions were detected, coagulation necrosis with
central calcification and peripherally located crumbs of leukocyte nucleus were
noted. In the animal with lung lesions, alveolar capillary hyperemia and
mononuclear cellular infiltration including neutrophil leukocytes were also
detected. In microbiological analysis, samples were inoculated onto specific
agars, incubated at aerobic, microaerobic and anaerobic conditions for 48 hours
and finally colonies grown on anaerobic environment in Eugon agar and blood
agar were evaluated. In inoculations made from the 2 lungs and 1 liver samples
that were collected from different animals, colonies that produce large
hemolytic areas were viewed. In gram staining, fusiform and gram (-) bacteria
were named as Fusobacterium necrophorum. The
results of the study indicate that necrobasillozis might be an important cause
of death in lambs in Kars province. It was also concluded that death due to
necrobasillozis might be seen in lambs with no apparent gross lesions.
