Cat-bite peritonitis: Pasteurella multocida peritonitis following feline contamination of peritoneal dialysis tubing.

We report a case of a 55-year-old woman with end-stage renal disease undergoing intermittent peritoneal dialysis who developed peritonitis secondary to an infection with Pasteurella multocida resulting from a cat bite or cat scratch penetrating her peritoneal dialysis tubing. This case points out the potential importance of household pets as a source of peritoneal contamination.

Prosthetic joint infection with Pasturella multocida following cat scratch: a report of 2 cases.

Infection is a known cause of failure in a total joint arthroplasty. Secondary or delayed infections are caused by a wider variety of pathogens, including Gram-negative organisms. Pasturella multocida is a Gram-negative bacillus that forms part of the normal nasopharyngeal and gastrointestinal flora of cats and many other animals. Nontrauma-associated infections also have been reported, but these are more often confined to animal handlers. We report 2 patients who had cat scratch and who developed infection of their total hip arthroplasties with P multocida. Both patients were immunocompromised and required revision of their hip arthroplasty. One patient had 1-stage revision, because infective cause was not obvious at the time of surgery. These patients were followed for 18 months to 2 years after surgery, with good results.

New diagnostic techniques: a review of the HAP group of bacteria.

Pasteurella haemolytica, Pasteurella multocida, Haemophilus somnus, Haemophilus parasuis and Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae cause considerable economic loss in the cattle and swine industries. The literature relating to diagnostic procedures for these infections is reviewed. Both conventional and newer techniques are appraised in relation to the identification and classification of isolates, and to serological testing.

[Post-traumatic meningitis due to Pasteurella multocida].

The clinical data of a 14-year old female patient with posttraumatic meningitis by Pasteurella multocida are reported. The behaviour of the isolated strain is recorded in cultural and biochemical aspect as well as in animal experiment. The importance of the infection with Pasteurella multocida is lined out and the possible origin of the disease in the reported case is discussed. Finally some problems of special bacteriological diagnosis are explained and hints are given in this respect.

Serologic analysis of isolates of Pasteurella haemolytica and Staphylococcus aureus from mastitic ewes.

Milk samples (10 ml) were collected aseptically from infected and healthy mammary glands of 20 range ewes in the early stages of unilateral acute mastitis. The ewes were on 5 different ranches in the Northern Rocky Mountain region of the United States. The samples were plated on tryptose blood agar and examined for bacteria of possible etiologic significance. Twelve of the 20 ewes were infected with Pasteurella haemolytica, 4 ewes with Staphylococcus aureus, and 1 ewe with both bacteria. Twelve of the P haemolytica infections were in pure culture as were 4 S aureus infections. The 13 isolates of P haemolytica represented 6 different serotypes. Isolates of P haemolytica from ewes on the same ranch were as serologically diverse as were isolates from ewes in different herds. The 5 isolates of S aureus were similar antigenically. Bacterial isolates were not obtained from the milk of clinically healthy mammae.

Effect on the incidence of atrophic rhinitis of vaccination of sows with a vaccine containing Pasteurella multocida toxin.

Combined experimental infections with Bordetella bronchiseptica and either a toxigenic or a non-toxic strain of P. multocida were carried out in newborn specific pathogen free piglets born to 25 sows. Pigs inoculated with B. bronchiseptica and toxin-producing P. multocida developed severe progressive atrophic rhinitis corresponding to the natural disease. The effect of vaccination of sows with a toxin-containing P. multocida vaccine on the incidence of nasal lesions in the offspring was studied.
