Abstract: Background: Bovine anaplasmosis is a haemolytic disease of cattle caused by an obligate intra-erythrocytic bacterium Anaplasma marginale and is characterized by high fever, dyspnoea, anaemia, icterus, decreased milk production and death. The present study was undertaken to study the gross and histopathological changes caused by naturally occurring A. marginale infection in cattle. Methods: History and clinical examination of animals revealed inappetance/anorexia, presence of tick infestation, high fever, pale … Show more

“…Hypoalbuminemia, as observed in this case, has also been observed in cattle infected with A. marginale as a consequence of the decreased protein synthesis capacity of the liver in chronic failure. Hepatocyte degeneration and necrosis are important characteristics of bovine anaplasmosis and are more severe than in babesiosis [ 26 ]. Acute hemolysis, such as anaplasmosis, leads to the overproduction of bilirubin and its retention in the bile ducts.…”
