抄録

A Holstein grade female calf 17days old suffered from diarrhea occasionally and decreased gradually in appetite. It was sacrificed after 4weeks for autopsy. Main findings were diphtheroid enteritis in the jejunum, hemorrhagic erosions or ulcers in the abomasum, and petechial hemorrhage or necrotic focus in the liver, lungs, and mesenteric lymph nodes. Histopathological there was the formation of embolism in blood vessels containing a large number of hyphae. Furthermore, a grcat many hyphae invaded the edematous areas. these hyphae might have been spread over tous areas. There hyphae might have been spread over the whole body through the blood circulation. These results seemed to indicate that this calf had been involved in fungous infection.
