Rhodococcus equi pleuropneumonia in an adult horse.

Modest Vengust1, Henry Staempfli, John F Prescott.   

Abstract

A 10-year-old warmblood gelding was evaluated for intermittent pyrexia, dullness, weight loss, and progressive respiratory disease. Multifocal necrotic pneumonia and pleuritis due to Rhodococcus equi infection was diagnosed. Case management is discussed, as well as factors that may have led to this rare cause of pleuropneumonia in an adult horse.
