Pathological and electron microscopical observations on naturally occurring contagious ecthyma outbreak in two wild goats (Capra aegagrus aegragus)
Abstract
Numerous young wild goats (Capra aegagrus aegragus) were reported to suffer from a contagious and fatal disease
in a wildlife protection area in Antalya, Turkey, in January, 2017. Because of the large and partly inaccessible mountain area, total
number of the dead goats were not known. However, approximately 15 goats were estimated to die from the disease; two of them were
submitted for necropsy. At gross examination, lesions mainly localized on lips and numerous proliferative papules and pustules,
necrotic scabs and swelling, as well as edema, hyperemia and ulcers, were observed at the commissure of the lips. Necropsy of both
goats was performed and tissue samples were examined histopathologically and electron microscopically for the presence of viral
agents. Histopathological examination revealed necrotic and proliferative cheilitis and dermatitis with eosinophilic intracytoplasmic
inclusion bodies in keratinocytes. Electron microscopy revealed typical parapoxvirus particles. According to gross, histopathological
and ultrastructural findings the disease was diagnosed as contagious ecthyma.
