Enterococcus hiraeEnteropathy with Ascending Cholangitis and Pancreatitis in a Kitten

Abstract: Abstract.A 2-month-old female Persian cat that had been showing episodes of anorexia and diarrhea for the previous 4 weeks was presented in shock and died 2 days later. Numerous Gram-positive cocci were located along the brush border of small intestinal villi, without significant inflammatory infiltration. Similar bacteria were present within hepatic bile ducts and pancreatic ducts and were associated with suppurative inflammation and exfoliation of epithelial cells. Culture of the liver and lung yielded bacte… Show more

“…Casos de colangite/colangio-hepatite supurativa associados à infecção ascendente do trato biliar por enterococos têm sido descritos (JACKSON et al, 1994;DAY, 1995). Todavia, a visualização de bactérias no lúmen dos ductos biliares misturados a células inflamatórias em cortes histológicos tem sido descrita em raras ocasiões (LAPOINTE et al, 2000).…”

“…Bactérias intestinais tais como E. coli, Enterococcus, Bacterioides, Fusobacterium e Streptococcus têm sido isoladas através de culturas aeróbicas e anaeróbicas de amostras de bile e fígado em casos de colangite/colangioepatite supurativa (LEWIS et al, 1991;JACKSON et al, 1994;LAPOINTE et al, 2000). Testes de sensibilidade têm sido feitos nesses casos com o objetivo de selecionar o antibiótico mais eficaz para o tratamento dessa condição (DAY, 1995).…”
