A Case of Sepsis Caused by ST80 Multidrug‐Resistant Enterococcus faecium With Concurrent Klebsiella pneumoniae Infection in a Dog

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
An 8‐year‐old dog developed acute respiratory distress that progressed to sepsis and death. Multidrug‐resistant Enterococcus faecium ST80 was isolated from the liver and kidney, while Klebsiella pneumoniae was detected in the lung by PCR. Whole‐genome sequencing showed that the ST80 isolates were genetically identical, suggesting hematogenous spread ...

Differences in the effects of Bordetella pertussis and respiratory syncytial virus infection on the composition of nasopharyngeal flora in neonates

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2023
IntroductionBordetella pertussis and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) are important pathogens causing cough in neonates. Few studies have investigated the differences in the effects of these two specific infections on respiratory flora.

Clinical and computed tomography findings of fatal poxviral vasculitis in a domestic shorthair cat

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, May 2026.
Abstract This report describes the clinical presentation, haematological abnormalities and imaging findings of systemic poxvirus infection in a cat that resulted in widespread severe dermal oedema and systemic inflammatory response syndrome. The cat lacked cutaneous lesions before the onset of dermal oedema, but developed crusting skin lesions and a ...

Complete structures of Bordetella bronchiseptica and Bordetella parapertussis lipopolysaccharides

, 2006
The structures of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) core and O antigen of Bordetella bronchiseptica and Bordetella parapertussis are known, but how these two regions are linked to each other had not been determined. We have studied LPS from several strains of

Ischaemic dermatopathy associated with multiple vaccinations in a miniature poodle

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, May 2026.
Abstract A 10‐year‐old, spayed, female miniature poodle presented with hyperpigmented alopecia. Two months prior, it had received two polyvalent vaccines 2 weeks apart. Erythematous alopecia at the injection sites was initially observed. These rapidly expanded to the ventral neck and thoracic regions after further rabies vaccination.

Allogenic blood patch pleurodesis for management of presumptive secondary spontaneous pneumothorax in a cat

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, May 2026.
Abstract A 7‐year‐old spayed female domestic shorthair cat was presented with respiratory distress due to presumed spontaneous pneumothorax. High‐resolution computed tomography identified subpleural blebs and paraseptal emphysema with peribronchial thickening and bronchiectasis.
