Fibrinous colitis - Atlas of swine pathology
Fibrinous colitis
Where: digestive system, intestines
Possible causes: SalmonellosisSwine dysentery
Fibrinous exudation in the small intestine and colon are usually associated with Salmonella spp. infection (as it is this case). Swine dysentery (caused by Brachyspira hyodysenteriae) can also produce fibrinous or ulcerative lesions, but usually restricted to colon. Fibrin adhered to the mucosa surface implies necrosis of the mucosa.
