- Abstract
The article presents the findings of a study conducting on examining an extensive distal limb involvement which resulted in severe lameness in 20 of 130 animals on a beef fattening unit. The study was carried on Aberdeen Angus crossbred cattle. Under the study, the histopathological examination of the cutaneous lesions reported multiple pyogranulomatous foci within the dermis and subcutis. It concludes that the outbreak of cutaneous actinobacillosis depends on the numbers of animals involved.
