“…The Hoeppli phenomenon was observed around the bacterial colonies in lung, lymph node and pancreas, but not in the inflamed mamma. Eikenella corrodens in the present case was resistant to most antibiotics, except ampicillin, penicillin, chloramphenicol and tetracycline (Brack, 1997).…”

Abstract. The Department of Pathology was the first scientific unit established at the German Primate Center (DPZ) already in its planning phase. At that early time the planning of administrative duties was also necessary, including the financial framework of the laboratory equipment of the then-envisioned three departments of pathology, virology and physiology, in order to get the DPZ off the ground. Otherwise the functions of the Department of Pathology were both service duties and scientific evaluations. The service functions after the establishment of the DPZ included pathological, bacteriological and parasitological examinations/surveys and the veterinary care of nonhuman primates at the DPZ and other primate colonies. On an international level its service functions were reflected by the collaboration within the Office International de Epizooties (OIE, Paris) (Dollinger et al., 1996) and the Infectious Diseases Working Group of the European Association of Zoo and Wildlife Veterinarians, and the establishment of a bacteriological laboratory in Iquitos, Peru, at the request of the Pan American Health Organization. Parallel to those administrative and service duties to the DPZ and to international communities, the different scientific activities started, which in a pathology department always are a combination of service and research. They are documented by a total of almost 120 publications, including 3 doctoral theses and 116 publications by the author from 1973 to 1999; the most important ones are summarized in the following examples.

“…1-, 3-8 It has also been reported in a number of wild mammals including African elephants, barbary ape and harp seals. [9][10][11] Naturally occurring disease has not been previously reported in rabbits. The exact pathogenesis is not completely understood, but it is thought that pyogranulomas develop because of a complex interaction between the virulence of the infectious organisms and the host response.…”

“…A case of intra‐abdominal BM (Share and Utroska 2002) and a cutaneous BM (Walton and others 1982) are the only cases described in dogs. PB has been described in human beings, horses, guinea pigs, cattle, chicken and Barbary apes (Bollinger 1870, Bostrom and others 1969, Brack 1997, Kathir and Dennis 2001, Miller and others 2001).…”

The authors report a case of septic pericardial effusion resulting in cardiac tamponade associated with intrathoracic botryomycosis in a dog. Septic pericarditis and a pulmonary mass were diagnosed, and subtotal pericardiectomy and lobectomy of the affected pulmonary areas were carried out. Histopathology of the excised tissue showed changes supportive of botryomycosis--namely a pyogranulomatous inflammation with neutrophils centred around amorphous homogeneous eosinophilic material and club-like bodies containing Gram-positive bacterial cocci present in the centre. The patient recovered well following surgery and antibiotic therapy. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report of pulmonary botryomycosis in the dog and the first report of this condition presented with pericardial involvement and cardiac tamponade in any species.
