Pyogranulomatous dermatitis with Enterococcus faecalis in a spotted seal (Phoca larga)
A rare pyogranulomatous dermatitis case caused by E. faecalis in a captive adult male spotted seal (Phoca largha) was described. We provide a meaningful approach to the diagnosis and treatment of bacterial dermatitis in pinnipeds. Abstract Background Cutaneous infections are important diseases in captive and free‐ranging pinnipeds and are associated ...
