“…In addition to crocodiles, this disease has been documented in the serrated hinged terrapin Pelusios sinuatus (Smith, 1838) (Huchzermeyer, Govender, Pienaar, & Deacon, 2011; Oberholster, Myburgh, Ashton, Coetzee, & Botha, 2012), fish species such as the African sharptooth catfish ( Clarias gariepinus (Burchell, 1822), the rednose labeo ( Labeo rosae Steindachner, 1894)), the Mozambique tilapia ( Oreochromis mossambicus (Peters, 1852))(Huchzermeyer, 2012a; Huchzermeyer et al., 2011, 2017; Huchzermeyer, Osthoff, Hugo, & Govender, 2013; Truter, Wyk, Oberholster, Botha, & Luus‐Powell, 2014) and various piscivorous birds (Myburgh & Botha, 2009; Oberholster, 2009) inhabiting the Olifants River System. Clinicopathological manifestation of pansteatitis includes adipose tissue necrosis, histiocytic inflammation and ceroid accumulation within granulomata and cytoplasm of aggregated macrophages, with severe cases resulting in the immobility and death of the affected host (Bangma et al., 2017; Huchzermeyer, 2012a, 2012b; Myburgh & Botha, 2009; Orós, Monagas, Calabuig, Luzardo, & Camacho, 2013). Environmental forms of pansteatitis have been linked to deleterious water conditions in conjunction with a deficiency in plasma vitamin E (Huchzermeyer, 2012a, 2012b; Huchzermeyer et al., 2013, 2017; Lane et al., 2013), selenium (Huchzermeyer, 2012a; Lane et al., 2013) and nutritional deficiencies associated with the ingestion and metabolism of large quantities of polyunsaturated lipids under oxidative conditions (Huchzermeyer et al., 2017).…”
