Pleuropneumonia and mediastinitis caused by Rhodococcus equi in a dog: a case report
Frontiers in Veterinary ScienceRhodococcus equi is a cosmopolitan bacterium found in the feces of several animals, and it is recognized as a major cause of bronchopneumonia in foals, as well as an opportunistic pathogen causing infections in humans and, rarely, in other species.

Rhodococcus equi:An Emerging Pathogen [PDF]
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2002 More than 100 cases of Rhodococcus equi infection have been reported since the first description of human disease caused by this organism. The vast majority of patients infected with R. equi are immunocompromised, and two-thirds have human immunodeficiency virus infection. The clinical manifestations of R.

Australian Veterinary Journal, Volume 104, Issue 3, Page 158-166, March 2026.Infectious diseases significantly impact equine health and welfare, causing illness and death, and loss of productivity globally. One such disease is ‘strangles’, a highly contagious upper respiratory condition in horses caused by Streptococcus equi subspecies equi (SEE).

A retrospective case series of 66 foals with presumed acute interstitial pneumonia
Equine Veterinary Education, Volume 38, Issue 3, Page 143-153, March 2026.Summary Background There is limited literature describing acute interstitial pneumonia (AIP) in foals. Objectives Description of clinical and ultrasonographic findings in 66 foals affected by AIP. Investigation into whether the number of AIP cases is associated with specific climatic conditions. We also investigated whether clinical, haematological and

Rhodococcus bacteremia in cancer patients is mostly catheter related and associated with biofilm formation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Rhodococcus is an emerging cause of opportunistic infection in immunocompromised patients, most commonly causing cavitary pneumonia. It has rarely been reported as a cause of isolated bacteremia.
