Rhodococcus equi–What is New This Decade?
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Equine Practice, 2023Foals become infected shortly after birth; most develop subclinical pneumonia and 20% to 30% develop clinical pneumonia that requires treatment. It is now well established that the combination of screening programs based on thoracic ultrasonography and treatment of subclinical foals with antimicrobials has led to the development of resistant ...

A case of rhodococcus equi brain abscess
Surgical Neurology, 1991We treated a patient with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome for a brain abscess caused by Rhodococcus equi, an actinomycete that usually infects the lung in immunosuppressed hosts. Rhodococcus equi brain abscess is an extremely rare lesion that has never been reported in a patient with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1989To the Editor. — Rhodococcus (Corynebacterium) equi is a gram-positive, aerobic bacillus that is a common pathogen in animals.

Recently, human infestation has been seen in immunocompromised patients, presenting primarily with pulmonary manifestations.

Seminars in respiratory infections, 1997
Corynebacterium equi is a pleomorphic gram-positive rod that was first isolated in 1923 by Magnusson, and is the cause of suppurative broncho-pneumonia in foals. The organism, now know as Rhodococcus equi, is ubiquitous in nature and is increasingly recognized as pathogenic, particularly in the immunocompromised population.

The pathogenesis of rhodococcus equi pneumonia in foals
Veterinary Microbiology, 1987The pathogenesis of Rhodococcus equi pneumonia in foals is reviewed. The main routes of infection are respiratory and alimentary. The latter is probably the chief route of exposure in all foals and probably leads to development of specific immunity. Susceptible foals, those whose maternal immunity wanes before generation of their own immune response ...

Treatment of Infections Caused by Rhodococcus equi
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Equine Practice, 2017Pneumonia caused by Rhodococcus equi remains an important cause of disease and death in foals. The combination of a macrolide (erythromycin, azithromycin, or clarithromycin) with rifampin remains the recommended therapy for foals with clinical signs of infection caused by R equi.
