Post mortem examination of a young fallow deer (Dama dama) revealed a severe purulent and necrotizing glossitis as well as a multifocal necrotizing and ulcerative rumenitis and typhlitis. The animal was cachectic. Mannheimia (M.) sp. was isolated from the tongue lesions and identified as M. granulomatis by MALDI-TOF MS and 16S rRNA sequencing. Mycosis and BVDV infection were excluded. Few publications are dealing with similar macroscopic findings associated with the isolation of M. granulomatis in cattle and roe deer. Therefore, M. granulomatis should also be taken into consideration when such lesions occur in other ruminants. Based on our findings in case of gross pathological lesions of the tongue of ruminants a Mannheimia granulomatis-infection should be investigated as well as the possible role of Fusobacterium necrophorum, Actinobacillus lignieresii or Actinomyces bovis.

A 57-year-old female presented with a chief complaint of cough, with productive yellow sputum particularly severe in the morning. Bronchoscopy revealed inflammatory changes in both main bronchi, with abundant white purulent secretions and necrotic material adhering to the luminal surface. Histopathological examination showed chronic inflammatory changes in the mucosal tissue, with mild hyperplasia of the local squamous epithelium and evidence of keratinization in the surrounding area, consistent with a diagnosis of tracheal mucosal keratosis.

Article Synopsis
  • Necrotising fasciitis (NF) is a serious, fast-spreading infection known as "flesh-eating disease," primarily affecting soft tissues and leading to skin necrosis.
  • An elderly male developed periorbital NF after a minor head injury, showing symptoms like swelling and discharge, with a rare pathogen identified as the cause.
  • The treatment involved antibiotics, surgery, and skin grafting, resulting in significant recovery, highlighting the need for quick diagnosis and intervention to avoid severe outcomes.

Article Synopsis
  • Non-native snake bites can be complicated to treat due to difficulties in obtaining the right antivenom and understanding their effects.
  • A 37-year-old man was bitten by his pet monocled cobra, leading to respiratory failure that required mechanical ventilation and antivenom treatment.
  • After an initial recovery, he faced complications from the bite wound, requiring antibiotic treatment and eventual surgical procedures, but ultimately he made a full recovery 36 days later.
