Abstract
In a case of excessive mortality in seven-week-old turkeys, the primary lesion at necropsy was severe fibrinous pericarditis and epicarditis. After 48 hours of incubation at 37 C, Pasteurella anatipestifer was isolated. The infection responded to antibiotic therapy with a combination of neomycin and oxytetracycline in the drinking water. The lesions suggested chlamydial infection, but cultural procedures for chlamydia were negative.
